  1. Eric P. Prostko Professor/Extension Weed Specialist Dept. Crop & Soil Sciences Field Corn Weed Management Update
  2. 2013 Field Corn Weed Science Issues RR1 vs. RR2 Hybrids Steadfast Q on ALS Sensitive Hybrids Strongarm carryover? Atrazine/Roundup Mixing Issues Late-Season Morningglory Pest Control Updates
  3. RR1 vs. RR2 Hybrid – The Issues different trait events RR1 = GA21 (1998) RR2 = NK603 (2001) different rate/timing structures RR1: 0.75 lb ae/A, 2 apps, 30” or V8 RR2: 0.75-1.12 lb ae/A, 2 apps, 30” or V8, 30-48 (drops) Some glyphosate brands no longer listed RR1 on their label? How tolerant are RR1 hybrids?
  4. RR1 Field Corn (Pioneer 2023BVT) Yield Response to Roundup WeatherMax P = 0.2275 CV = 3.8 Applied 28 DAP, V5, 5” tall corn All trts included Aatrex 4L @ 64 oz/A + COC @ 1% v/v Bu/A
  5. Corn Hybrid/Herbicide Interactions some corn hybrids are sensitive to certain herbicides Companies screen for tolerance to ……. Amides (Dual) Benzoic Acid/phenoxy – (dicamba) HPPD (Callisto) ALS (Steadfast) DuPont Q Products Steadfast Q, Resolve Q Isoxadifen (safener)
  6. DKC-6469 Response to Steadfast Q CN-18-13 May 3 16 DAT Roundup WeatherMax @ 22 oz/A Aatrex @ 64 oz/A Roundup WeatherMax @ 22 oz/A Steadfast Q @ 1.5 oz/A Aatrex @ 64 oz/A Roundup WeatherMax @ 22 oz/A Steadfast Q @ 3.0 oz/A Aatrex @ 64 oz/A
  7. ‘DKC 64-69’ Yield Response to POST Applications of Steadfast Q (RUWM @ 22 oz/A, ATZ @ 64 oz/A, STDQ @ 1.5 or 3 oz/A) P = 0.5017 CV = 1.75 Applied 28 DAP V4, 6” tall corn Bu/A
  8. Field Corn/Strongarm Concerns Increases in corn acres GA Harvested Acres 2012 = 310,000 2013 = 450,000 Corn is a great rotation for peanut! Strongarm has 18 month rotation restriction for field corn Reported ˝-life is 33-65 days (WSSA Herbicide Handbook)
  9. Turner County Field Problem - 2013
  10. Average Daily Air and Soil (2”) Temperatures March 1-April 15 (UGA Ponder Farm) Year F0 Optimal Day = 77-910F Optimal Night = 62-740F
  11. Strongarm Injury 22 DAT CN-03-13 1X = 0.45 oz/A 2X 1X 1/2X 1/4X 1/8X 1/16X NTC
  12. Field Corn Yield As Influenced by PRE Applications of Strongarm 84WG - 2013 Rate/A (oz) LSD 0.10 = 28 Rate/A (oz) LSD 0.10 = 52 Bu/A
  13. Strongarm/Field Corn Assuming normal degradation, it is highly probable that field corn could be planted after 5 ˝-lives (165-325 days) rather than 540 days (18 months) currently labeled.
  14. Atrazine/Roundup Mixing Compatibility Does not happen all the time? Cold water temperatures Low water volumes Mixing order Less likely with generic glyphosates?
  15. Morningglory Control in Field Corn
  16. Morningglory Control in Corn as much atrazine as possible 1.0 lb/A – PRE fb 1.5 lb/A – POST small grain rotations 2,4-D, Clarity, Status, Aim, ET, Evik (PDIR) Liberty-Link® Corn Systems split applications of glyphosate (RR corn) * 1st application + atrazine Harvest Aids Aim Early-harvest
  17. Current GA Field Corn Weed Control For most in GA ……. Atrazine + Glyphosate (RR corn) Liberty (LL corn) Steadfast Q Laudis or Capreno Halex GT (glyphosate + Callisto + Dual) If I was King, I would make every GA grower use 1 qt/A Atrazine PRE fb 1.5 qt/A + 1 of the above!
  18. Steadfast Q (S) + Atrazine (A) vs. Roundup (R) + Atrazine (A) - Corn Yields - 2013 Trial# Bu/A Not significantly different at 0.10
  19. 2014 Field Corn Pest Control Handbook Changes POST timing table Valor burndown warning Deleted irrelevant products Zidua use rate on coarse soils (1.5 oz/A) New ryegrass control rec’s Q products on any hybrid
  20. Zidua 85WG PPI, PRE, EPOST (V4) Pyroxasulfone (KIH-485) Residual control of annual grasses and certain broadleaf weeds including pigweed Same MOA as Dual or Warrant but used at lower rates. May also be better on FL beggarweed ? Use rates: 1.0-2.75 oz/A $6.50/oz? Registered June 2012
  21. Weed Control in Field Corn with Zidua – 2013 CN-15-13 May 28 69 DAP NTC Zidua 85WG @ 2 oz/A (PRE) Roundup W-Max 5.5SL @ 22 oz/A (POST) Aatrex 4L @ 64 oz/A (POST)
  22. Enlist™ Herbicide Tolerant Corn tolerance to 2,4-D and Assure + GLY Colex-D™ technology 2,4-D choline lower volatility lower drift potential enhanced handling/mixing characteristics reduced odor 1 PRE application + 2 POST applications (30” or V8 stage) Enlist™ Duo DMA-Glyphosate (1.71 lb ae/gal) + 2,4-D choline (1.63 lb ae/gal) 3.5 pt/A 2015 Product Launch (Mid-West) Monsanto/Dekalb license 2,4-D choline
