SLIDE CONTENTS
  1. Weed Control Update for Wheat Managing Ryegrass
  2. Managing Ryegrass in Wheat Currently available: Finesse Hoelon Sencor Axiom In development: Mesosulfuron
  3. Ryegrass size pt Hoelon 1- to 3-leaf 1.33 pt 3- to 4-leaf 1.33 to 2 pt 5-leaf to 2 tiller 2 to 2.67 pt Rates of Hoelon POST on wheat and barley
  4. Wheat: Before first node (jointing) of wheat Timing Hoelon POST
  5. Wheat: Can add 1 to 2 pt/acre COC. Suggested only on large grass or dry conditions. Will increase risk of injury. Do not add if cool and wet. Do not use silicones or MSO. Use of adjuvants with Hoelon POST:
  6. Do not apply if one or more conditions exist: Cold temperature: Anytime during 72 hr preceding application temperature drops below 35 degrees Delay application if freezing temperature predicted within 3 days of application Soil moisture: Moisture at or above field capacity Precautions on Hoelon label:
  7. Don’t do it; will lead to antagonism. Tank mixing Hoelon with other herbicides:
  8. Do not apply 2,4-D within 5 days of Hoelon application Sequential applications of Hoelon and broadleaf herbicides:
  9. Hoelon Tank Mixes in Wheat Label: may tank mix with liquid nitrogen fertilizer (28 to 32%) if the timing for use is compatible UGA recommends no herbicide tank 1) often to late to control weeds 2) injury potential increased 3) reduced control of ryegrass
  10. Estimated percentage in GA: ?????????????? Hoelon-resistant Ryegrass
  11. Alternatives to Hoelon Currently available: Finesse Hoelon Sencor Axiom In development: Mesosulfuron

  15. Sencor Rates Limited by Soil Types Need ideal weather conditions: warm (not hot) periods with optimum wheat and ryegrass growth no significant rainfall for several days Do not add crop oil May add nonionic surfactant but may see ~10% additional injury

  30. Weed Control Update for Wheat Managing Ryegrass
  31. Broadleaf Weed Control Options Sencor Peak MCPA Express Buctril Harmony Extra Bronate 2,4-D Finesse Clarity
  32. Harmony Extra Rate: 0.3 to 0.6 oz/A for wheat & barley (0.5 oz in general); 0.3 to 0.4 oz for oats Timing: 2-leaf until flag leaf visible Adjuvant: 0.25% NIS in water 0.125% NIS in nitrogen Weeds: Controls garlic and most broadleaf weeds Mixes: 2,4-D to improve cornflower, wild radish, and vetch Rotations: No restrictions of concern Grains: Wheat, barley, oats
  33. Express 1. effective on wild radish, wild mustard, and other broadleaf weeds 2. 2-lf stage until just before flag leaf wheat and barley 3. less effective than Harmony Extra on garlic, henbit, shepherdsurse, and wild radish. No rotational restrictions of concern 4. tank mix with 0.125 to 0.375 lb ai of 2,4-D or MCPA
  34. Express Rate/timing: 0.25 to .33 oz POST, after 2 lf to flag leaf Adjuvant: 0.25% NIS Carrier: water or specific N Weeds: Less effective than Harmony Extra on garlic, henbit, and shepherdsurse Mixes: Mix with 0.25 to 0.5 pt/A of MCPA or 2,4-D Rotations: No rotation restriction Grains: Wheat, barley
  35. MCPA 1.) Similar to 2,4-D, 0.5 to 1 pt/A POST 2.) After wheat has 2 tillers (some labels allow application after 2 leaf) but before jointing (oats should be fully tillered) 3.) Wheat, barley, rye, oats
  36. 2,4-D 1. Controls most broadleaf weeds except chickweed, henbit, knawel. For wild garlic and wild onion, increase rate according to label. 2. Apply after fully tillered but before jointing in wheat, oats, barley, and rye
  37. Seedling Fully tillered Jointing Heading Flowering Soft dough Increasing tolerance Susceptibility of Small Grains to Phenoxy Herbicides As Affected by Growth Stage
