Eric P. Prostko Professor/Extension Weed Specialist Dept. Crop & Soil Sciences 2018 Field Corn Weed Management Update
Field Corn Weed Control - General Other mgt. practices are important! Tillage Plant population Row spacing Nematode, insect, disease control Irrigation A healthy and uniformly spaced crop is better able to compete with weeds
Herbicide Carryover in GA? Never say never but …… low OM high sand content warm temperatures ample rainfall/irrigation
Herbicide Carryover or Nematodes Burke County April 2017 Stubby Root Nematodes 21/100cm3 of soil >9 is threshold
Figure 1. Field Corn Yield Loss (%) Caused by Uncontrolled Weeds in Georgia Weed Science Research Trials (2007-2017). Treated vs. Non-treated 200 Bu/A X 0.36 X $3.50 = $252/A 200 Bu/A X 0.16 X $3.50 = $112/A
Later POST Applications? V6 stage all leaves are initiated Ear shoot initiation Kernel rows/ear begins Tassel initiation Growing point above soil surface ~500 GDD
Marestail in Field Corn (i.e. Horseweed) Tillage Burndown Liberty (glufosinate) + atrazine? Glyphosate + Dicamba or 2,4-D? Sharpen + MSO 0 day plant-back Paraquat + atrazine Residual atrazine In-Crop Liberty (LL) Dicamba 2,4-D Enlist corn - 2,4-D choline
