Herbicide Resistant Weed Control Virtual Field Day

October 21, 2020

Herbicide Resistant Weed Control Virtual Field Day

Join us on October 21 for a virtual demonstration and walking tour of 16 different pre- and post-emergence treatments in soybean and 10 different treatments and combinations in corn.

  • Tall waterhemp and marestail are two weeds that are resistant to glyphosate and ALS herbicide modes of action in the WNY and Finger Lakes regions.
  • Each year the number of acres with resistant weed populations expands.
  • For herbicides to be an effective tool in weed management, we have to know what chemistries & application timings are most effective against these resistant weeds.

Webinar links will be shared the day prior to the event by the email you register with.
