University Of Arkansas Flag The Technology Program Adds Enlist Weed Control System

DiFlexx (dicamba) has a wide window of application, from burndown to V10, for ensuring complete broadleaf weed control and flexibility, and is tankmix compatible with Corvus or Balance Flexx herbicides from burndown to V2, and post with Laudis or Capreno herbicides.

A University of Georgia professor is advocating that farmers rotate the pesticides they apply to cotton crops in order to prevent another outbreak of the herbicide-resistant weed, Palmer amaranth.

FMC Corp. has acquired all global rights to a novel, proprietary herbicide from Kumiai Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., and Ihara Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.

Protea’s LAESI DP-1000 Instrument System will be used in Purdue’s College of Agriculture, the Department of Botany and Plant Pathology, for the molecular imaging of herbicide active ingredients and other related compounds to optimize herbicide applications and improve weed management. 

Syngenta will sell BroadAxe XC herbicide in 2015 for use on soybeans, sunflowers and dry peas

A registration decision by EPA for BASF’s Engenia herbicide is anticipated to follow the dicamba-tolerant trait deregulation milestone.

Lodged Palmer amaranth seeds may travel across state lines with the combine, says Kevin Bradley, weed scientist at University of Missouri Extension.

Unique weed management challenges facing growers in 2015, such as new herbicide tolerance traits and herbicide resistance, will be the focus of the presentation by MSU weed control specialist Christy Sprague on March 23.

A team of 12 scientists is making significant headway in the battle against difficult weeds through their work at Syngenta on the Acuron corn herbicide technical team.

Monsanto and Sumitomo Chemical have entered into long-term agreements for weed management collaboration in Brazil and Argentina, expanding their ongoing strategic partnership under their North American Agreement.

Widespread herbicide resistance is keeping new actives and reformulated herbicide products center stage for ag retailers helping growers keep their fields clean and productive.

The product that will give growers of cereal crops, grass seed, alfalfa and managers of rangeland and non-cropland areas access to a new biological herbicide for suppression of downy brome.

Acuron was tested at 167 trial locations across 35 states. Trials included 95 Syngenta locations, 54 university locations and 18 distributor locations.

It will be launched in conjunction with a stewarded introduction of Enlist corn, and seed production of Enlist soybeans in 2015.

As Roundup Ready PLUS enters its fifth growing season, Monsanto is diversifying the range of tools available to farmers to protect their crops from yield-robbing weeds and insects.

The agreement extends their strategic partnership in Monsanto’s Roundup Ready PLUS Crop Management Solutions platform for soybeans and cotton in the U.S.

Even with new cropping systems being readied for market introductions, weed control will remain a challenge for many.

Herbicides applied in the fall often can provide improved control of many winter annual weed species compared with similar applications made in the spring, according to a University of Illinois weed scientist.
