Valor in Peanuts - 2002Suggestions • calibration • pre-slurry • plant 1.5” deep • apply at planting • do not irrigate when cracking • hull scrape • limited acreage
Ultra Blazer in Peanuts • new formulation • G-E control of croton, ragweed, mg, pigweed, etc • Concerns * crop injury * yield loss???

Ultra Blazer in Peanuts • small weeds • before 65 DAP • surfactant • 0.5-1.5 pts/A
Classic Issues in Peanut • 20-25% of acreage • late-season beggarweed • tolerance of new varieties • influence on TSWV
Does Classic have an influence on TSWV in peanut? • Studies conducted in 2000-2001 indicate….. • Classic can increase TSWV but not always. • Classic/TSWV interaction can reduce yields but not always. • Earlier applications??

“Herbicides on the Horizon”?? • Spartan (FMC) * broadleaf/y. nutsedge * crop injury concerns * cotton rotations • Callisto (Syngenta) * preemergence * broadleaf weeds * early development
2002 Research Focus • tropic croton control (Cadre tank-mixes) • dayflower/spiderwort control • herbicide/fungicide tank-mixes • reduced rates of Strongarm + Valor • Classic/TSWV • others???
