Looking for ways covers and herbicides can work together on your farm could help you increase soil health, control weeds and increase the effectiveness of your herbicides at the same time.
With Palmer amaranth becoming more herbicide-resistant, producers are pushing to find new ways to control it, such as using a rye cover crop to suppress it.
Herbicide resistance continues to be a growing concern among no-tillers. Not only are more weeds developing resistance, but some herbicide-resistant weeds, such as Palmer amaranth and waterhemp, are also very difficult to control if not caught early.
Farmers have a variety of tools at their disposal for managing weed populations in their fields. However, when it comes to pigweed, the options available can be frustratingly limited.
In this video from University of Arkansas Extension, grower Adam Chappell, Cotton Plant, AR, who has been using cover crops for 11 years, talks about using covers to control Palmer amaranth, why he covers every acre of his farm with cover crops, his experiences using cereal rye, and more.
Researchers found that a grass and legume cover crop combination produced the most biomass and reduced emergence of glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth by half.
This devastating pigweed is starting to make its way into the Corn Belt. Here’s what no-tillers need to know to protect their crops from this voracious pest.
There’s just nothing good that can be said about Palmer amaranth. It’s capable of wiping out 78% of soybean yields and a whopping 91% of corn yields on a given farm. Studies have shown populations are resistant to glyphosate, atrazine and HPPD-inhibiting herbicides.
