  17. As always……… start clean cover crops, tillage, herbicides multiple residuals Timely POST’s Post-Harvest “The Greatest American County Agent”
  18. Field Corn Weed Control Programs
  19. EPA Updates Atrazine CE-LOC to 9.7 µg/L (up from 3.4 µg/L) - July 8, 2024 CE-LOC = concentration-equivalent level of concern HUC = hydrologic unit code 2026? Worth/Turner Tattnall/Evans Watersheds with higher predicted atrazine concentration are expected to have waterbodies with greater vulnerability to atrazine runoff due to landscape features (e.g., soil restrictive layers), precipitation, and atrazine usage.
