Pigweed Challenges
May 2008 Rainfall Distribution in Tifton (CPES)
If residual herbicides are not activated on a timely basis with a reliable water source, pigweed control will be very difficult, maybe even impossible!
I need a favor!!!!
We are overusing the PPO inhibiting herbicides!!!!!!!!

Herbicide Resistance
Palmer Amaranth Control Start Clean!!!!! Use a residual!!! Do you have ALS or DNA resistance? Dryland or Irrigated? Spray when plants are small (<3”)

Pigweed Challenges Economics drive farmer decisions No real long-term weed mgt. planning just make it to next year Farm logistics Timeliness Dryland production systems
May 2008 Rainfall Distribution in Tifton (CPES) Dryland crops planted before May 9 or after May 16 did not get enough rain to activate residual herbicides!!! 0.33” 0.02” 0.06”
If residual herbicides are not activated on a timely basis with a reliable water source, pigweed control will be very difficult, maybe even impossible!
I need a favor!!!! In soybeans Think about Canopy or Boundary Instead of Valor, Reflex, Prefix Why? PPO resistance management
We are overusing the PPO inhibiting herbicides!!!!!!!! Resistance has already been reported in other areas!!! Common waterhemp 2001 (Kansas) 2002 (Illinois) 2003 (Missouri) Common ragweed 2005 (Delaware) Wild poinsettia 2004 (Brazil)
