Herbicide-resistant Palmer Amaranth a strong, persistent weed

2014-01-28 17:36:00| Corn & Soybean Digest

Source: Weed Science An article published in the recent issue of Weed Science showed that glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth weeds are strong, persistent plants due to amplification of the EPSPS gene. This means that glyphosate resistance will probably persist and farmers will be faced with finding different methods of removing Palmer amaranth from their fields. read more

Herbicide-resistant marestail drives fall weed control

2013-11-05 16:31:00| Corn & Soybean Digest

Potential upsides attract more growers to fall residual herbicide applications. More adverse spring weather and the northern spread of herbicide-resistant marestail find more reduced-tillage farmers considering fall residual herbicide applications. Fall applications have risen dramatically in the last few years and will continue to grow, says Regan Wear, CHS agronomy manager in Shipman, Ill. Erratic, wet, cold springs have narrowed the planting window and fueled interest in fall residual herbicide applications because they really sharpen up timing the following spring. read more

Farming Methods can Control Herbicide-Resistant Weeds in Soybeans

2013-06-22 00:01:00| Corn & Soybean Digest

Source: Weed Technology When weeds become resistant to herbicides, the advantage of growing herbicide-resistant crops is lost. Farming practices that limit the emergence of resistant weeds offer another means of control and thwart weeds effect on soybean crop production. Finding the right combinations of weed control methods can improve yields and reduce dependence on chemical weed control. read more
