CORN HERBICIDE UPDATE • Callisto 4 SC (mesotrione) • Approved for sweet corn • Camix 3.67L(S-metolachlor + mesotrione) • Atrazine sensitive watersheds • Radius 4L(flufenacet + isoxaflutole) • Similar to Equip 32DG • Resolve 25DF (rimsulfuron) • Pre or Post up to 12” 5 collars • Gramoxone Inteon 2L(paraquat) • Gramoxone Inteon (2 lb/gal) • Gramoxone Max (3 lb/gal)
SOURCES OF TOLERANCE FOR RR-Corn Roundup Ready Roundup Ready 2 (GA21 event) • Broadcast through V8 /30” • Max single rate 0.75 lb ae/A • Roundup Original @ 2 pt • Touchdown Hi-Tech @ 1.2 pt • (NK603 event) • Broadcast through V8 / 30” • Max single rate 1.13 lb ae/A • Roundup Orginal @ 3 pt • Roundup WeatherMAX @ 2 pt • Drop nozzles 30” to 48”
GRAIN SORGHUM HERBICIDE UPDATE • Sequence 5.25L(glyphosate + S-metolachlor) • Burndown treatment • Gramoxone Inteon 2L(paraquat) • Gramoxone Inteon 2lb/gal vs Gramoxone Max 3lb/gal
SOYBEAN HERBICIDE UPDATE • Canopy EX(chlorimuron + tribenuron) • Fall / Spr burndown (no later than 45 days before planting) • Need to include 2,4-D • Mostly broadleaf weeds • Synchrony XP(chlorimuron + thifensulfuron) • Synchrony XP 28.4DF vs Synchrony STS 42DF • Post & Early Preplant • Sequence 5.25L(glyphosate + S-metolachlor) • Burndown + Post (up to 3rd trifoliate) • Gramoxone Inteon 2L(paraquat) • Gramoxone Inteon (2 lb/gal) vs Gramoxone Max (3lb/gal)
FALL APPLICATIONS FOR CORN • BENEFITS • May eliminate spring burndown. • Limits weedy vegetation at planting. • Help soils warm & dry sooner (usually). • Spreads work load. • Helps Manage SCN? • DRAWBACKS • Risk of soil erosion. • May require advanced commitment to a crop. • Cannot rely on residual activity into next season. • May not eliminate spring burndown
