Aaron Hager is standing in a resistant waterhemp hot zone. The soybean rows surrounding him are a blanket of five-way herbicide resistance: atrazine, ALS inhibitors, PPO inhibitors, HPPD ...

The lack of diversity in both herbicide modes of action and crop rotation in this field led to the development of resistant waterhemp.” Common waterhemp is a member of the pigweed or amaranth ...

Waterhemp control is critical because the weed can cause significant yield loss and, when it is resistant to herbicides, also results in increased control costs, as much as doubling them.

Findings from a newly published Weed Science Society of America research article demonstrates an efficient, mechanical way to control herbicide-resistant weeds The HWSC technology used for the ...

A soybean researcher says cover crops can be another mode of action for controlling weeds, but it will take a lot of biomass. Shawn Conley says University of Wisconsin research through weed scientist ...

Ultra Blazer is used for control of escaped waterhemp when it is 6- to 9-inches tall. The use of Spin-Aid allows farmers to control kochia when the weed is small, said Tom Peters, sugarbeet ...

"These results indicate that seed impact mills can be a useful tool in soybean production to help manage multiple herbicide–resistant waterhemp populations." The HWSC technology used for the ...

However, Yadav cautions that this technology is not the sole answer to herbicide-resistant waterhemp management. "Implementation of HWSC methods in Iowa cropping systems is not a replacement of ...
