Field Musk Melon (Cucumis melo var. agrestis Naudin) is a weed species that has become a problem in the agricultural areas of Çukurova Region in recent years and has the potential to cause yield loses to many crops grown in the region. This study was carried out to determine effective Field Musk Melon control with herbicides in corn-growing areas. In trials established in 2017 and 2018 to evaluate the effectiveness of four preemergence and three postemergence herbicides registered for use on corn, herbicides containing Isoxaflutole+Thiencarbazone-methyl+Cyprosulfamide (225+90+150 g/l), S-Metolachlor+Terbuthylazine+Mesotrione (375+125+37.5 g/l), Dimethenamid-P+Terbuthylazine (280+250 g/l), Terbuthylazine+Pendimethalin (270+64 g/l), Tembotrione+Isoxadifen-ethyl (44+ 22 g/l), Mesotrione+Nicosulfuron (75+30 g/l), MCPA+Dicamba (340+80 g/l) were applied, all herbicide applications increased the corn yield, but these herbicide applications were not found to have sufficient effectiveness for Field Musk Melon. Pre-emergence herbicide applications controlled the Field Musk Melon by 34-63% in 2017, it controlled 15-29% in 2018, while post-emergence applications controlled this weed by 59-64% in 2017 and 12-28% in 2018. It was determined that the most effective herbicide was an herbicide containing Isoxaflutole+Thiencarbazone-methyl+Cyprosulfamide (225+90+150 g/l) active ingredients.
