  6. Impact of Residuals on Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) 10 mos. 24 mos.
  7. Sorghum Production Systems Sorghum production in GA: GA - 41,000 acres Farm gate value $16 million (UGA Farmgate Report 2019) Objective: Simulating sorghum planting behind watermelon production Sorghum tolerance following fomesafen & terbacil applications 100 DAA
  8. Sorghum Response to Fomesafen 2019 PRE applications of Terbacil & Fomesafen: Did not reduce plant stand, and biomass (14 DAA) Did not reduce plant stand, and height (21 DAA) Yield: Range: 58 – 77 bu ac-1 or 3,657 – 4,781 lbs ac-1 Trt differences (P = 0.03) but none from NTC Sorghum: Preliminary Results 2020 – 2022 PRE applications of Terbacil & Fomesafen: Did not reduce plant stand, and biomass (14 DAA) Did not reduce plant stand, and height (21 DAA) Necrosis was observed 139 DAA – transient by Sep. Yield: Range: 41 – 53 bu ac-1 or 2,519 – 3,254 lbs ac-1 No Trt differences (P > 0.1)
  9. TITLE Increased frequency Disturbed gravelly and sandy field edges Occurrence: Southwest Southeast (Railroad) Summer annual / weak-perennial 212,000 – 292,000 seeds plant-1 Germination ~ 10 days 6 – 8 weeks – flowering / mature capsules Non-dormant seed Management difficulties: Succulent vegetative structures Densely populated hairs Continuous seed production Controlling Pink Purslane (Portulaca pilosa)
  10. TITLE Limited research for desired control in southeastern U.S. Objective: Investigating herbicidal options for controlling pink purslane in the coastal plain region of Georgia Controlling Pink Purslane (Portulaca pilosa)
  11. TITLE Controlling Pink Purslane (Portulaca pilosa) NTC Roundup PowerMaxx3: 22.0 oz ac-1 Gramoxone: 32.0 oz ac-1 Liberty: 32.0 oz ac-1 Engenia: 12.8 oz ac-1 Enlist One: 32.0 oz ac-1 Diuron: 24.0 oz ac-1 Aatrex: 48.0 oz ac-1 Ultra Blazer: 24.0 oz ac-1 Storm: 24.0 oz ac-1 2,4-DB: 16.0 oz ac-1 a Treatments followed by letter indicate efficacious herbicides selected from greenhouse experiment for in-field research. Strongarm: 0.30 oz ac-1 Cobra: 12.5 oz ac-1 Impact: 1.25 oz ac-1 Callisto: 3.0 oz ac-1 Laudis: 3.0 oz ac-1 Shieldex: 1.0 oz ac-1 Gramoxone 12.0 + Storm 16.0 oz ac-1 Reflex: 24.0 oz ac-1 AIM: 1.0 oz ac-1 Cadre: 4.0 oz ac-1 Greenhouse POST Treatments

  13. Rescue herbicide Chlorimuron TSWV Disease management Cultivar resistance Lack of understanding on new cultivars Investigating New Peanut Cultivar Responses to Postemergence Applications of Chlorimuron Objective: Evaluate impact of chlorimuron on the incidence of TSWV and yield on AUNPL-17, FLORUN 331, GA-12Y, GA-16HO, GA-18RU, GA-20VHO, & TIFNV HIGH O/L
  14. Response to Chlorimuron AUNPL-17 TIFNV HIGH O/L GA-20VHO FLORUN 331 + Varieties with different letter indicated statistical difference at (P = 0.05). GA-18RU TSWV: No interaction between variety & herbicide (P = 0.38) Avg. over variety, classic timing @ 90 DAP TSWV (P < 0.1) Avg. over herbicide, some variety differences:+ FLORUN 331 – 29.7%a GA-18RU – 19.6%b TIFNV HIGH O/L – 18.8%b GA-20VHO – 10.4%c AUNPL-17 – 8.6%c Yield: No interaction between variety & herbicide (P = 0.30) Avg. over variety, no yield difference at any timing (P = 0.12) No yield difference regardless of TSWV (P > 0.1)
  15. GA-16HO Plant height: 65 & 77 DAP (P = 0.01) TSWV: No trt. influence (P = 0.13) Yield: No yield difference (P = 0.30) 4833 – 5835 lbs ac-1 Response to Chlorimuron GA-12Y Plant height: No trt. Influence (P = 0.43) TSWV: No trt. Influence (P = 0.16) Yield: Trt differences (P = 0.05) 77a = 6772 lb ac-1 0ab = 6573 lb ac-1 65ab = 6432 lb ac-1 90b = 5943 lb ac-1
  16. Limited herbicide options Herbicide resistance Newly developed herbicides Repurpose herbicides Objective: Test peanut response to delayed timing applications of fluridone & Trifludimoxazin Application timing: 1,3,5, & 7 DAP Peanut Response to Delayed Timing Applications of Fluridone and Trifludimoxazin
  17. Peanut (GA-06G) Yield Response to Brake and Vulcarus Applied 1,3,5,7 DAP P = 0.8992 P = 0.1462
