Brief Project Summary:

This project is a continuation and modification of 2012-2014 Extention projects. Since 2004, IPM assessment results indicated that ~90% of farmers were concerned about weed resistance developing on their farms. By 2013, over 65% were positive their farms had glyphosate-resistant weeds. The goal is to empower farmers to take control of their inputs and develop management strategies to mitigate herbicide resistance, such as implementing robust herbicide systems, developing long range plans, and incorporating cultural controls.

This project will also prepare, develop, compile and update publications, posters, and web-based videos on soybean cyst nematode (SCN), herbicide resistance management,...
