The effects of bentazon on yield and on N and oil content in grains, applied at 1,44 kg/ha, at three, growth stages, on soybeans, cv. Paraná, IAC-4, Santa Rosa and. UFV-1, were studied in a field experiment. No differences were found for yields or N and oil contents in any of the cultivars for application dates. Paraná and IAC-4 yielded more than the other two. N content was significantly lower in Santa Rosa and oil content significantly higher in Paraná and lower in UFV-1.
