  14. Be careful when mixing!! Staple, Envoke, Cadre are not a good idea on soybeans!!!!

  15. Controlling RR Cotton in RR Soybeans • Preemergence • Canopy 75DG (8 oz/A) • Sencor 4L (8-12 oz/A) • Sencor 75DF (5.3-8 oz/A) • POST glyphosate tank-mixes • 6” cotton, 3 leaves • Resource (4 ozs/A) - 77% • 2,4-DB (2 ozs/A) - 76% • Reflex (12 ozs/A) - 72% • Classic (0.33 ozs/A) - 62% • PRE only = 54-87% • POST only = 62-77% • PRE + POST = > 95% Source: York et al., Weed Technology. 2004. 532-539.

  16. Can we manage pigweed???

  17. Managing Palmer Amaranth • Know your enemy • Resistant or not?? • ALS or GR • Residual herbicide • activation • Timely POST’s • Avoid overusing PPO’s

  18. Spray POST’s when weeds are small!!!!

  19. GR-Palmer Amaranth Control in Soybean – 2007 (83 DAT) Untreated Prefix 5.2EC @ 2.03 pt/A SB-01-07

  22. Palmer Amaranth Control in Sorghum-Sudangrass Silage NTC 2,4-D amine @ 1 pt/A (27 DAT) GS-01-07

  23. A New Herbicide • KIH-485 (pyroxasulfone) • Kumiai • corn and soybeans • GA tests on peanuts and cotton • MOA not well understood at this time • Shoot inhibitor???? • Similar to metolachlor?? • Used at lower rates • more active on Texas panicum
