Palmer Amaranth Recommendations For 2014 Growing Season
April 2, 2014
Not only is the amount of money being spent to control these yield robbers high, but the toll it has taken on the human population is growing lager by the day.
Early-season weed control using residual herbicides can mean a stronger foundation for a clean growing season.
Corn growers have a new dual-action option for postemergence control of broadleaf weeds, including those resistant to glyphosate.
In a recent Verdict herbicide study, BASF reaffirmed the importance of using a preemergence herbicide with multiple sites of action.
Besides a host of pest challenges, agriculture in 2014 will be dealing with plenty of hard-to-kill weeds as well.
The evolution of multiple herbicide resistance in annual weeds has forced the development of innovative and alternative, non-chemical weed control strategies.
A greenhouse experiment found glyphosate resistance will probably persist, making it unlikely that susceptible Palmer amaranth would once again become dominant if glyphosate use was discontinued.
Plant Science Consulting director and weed science team researcher, Dr. Peter Boutsalis, Adelaide University, discusses some of the finer points of herbicide-resistance testing.
Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) has garnered much attention recently in both academic discussions and popular press releases, and […]
Mississippi State University scientists are fighting glyphosate-resistant Italian ryegrass with a research-based plan of attack.
FMC Agricultural Solutions has announced a new EPA crop registration of its Anthem SE herbicide now for use on soybeans.
The highly anticipated Enlist 2,4-D herbicide-tolerant corn has been issued a U.S. patent; Dow AgroSciences expects to launch the product in 2015.
Callisto GT post-emergence herbicide has received registration from EPA and all major corn-producing states.
Dow AgroSciences recently won two Agrow Awards recognizing industry-leading technology and innovation within the agriculture research industry.
Although there are currently dozens of weeds that show some kind of resistance to herbicides, these five are the most troublesome.
Here’s quick look at weed control strategies and their cost.
Recognizing the presence of herbicide-resistant weeds and formulating a total management plan is becoming more important than ever.
Beyond the possibility of resistance developing, ineffective control exacts cost to growers in lost yield.
Sophisticated tank mixes, multiple adjuvants and surfactants — this is the future of herbicide application.
