Brief Project Summary:

This research compares effect of various spray tips on herbicide drift, and the efficacy of these spray tips when used with contact, auxin, and systemic herbicides. It also compares efficacy of light and non-light activated herbicides when applied during both daytime and nighttime hours, and develops recommendations to optimize herbicide efficacy and avoid off-target deposition when applying herbicides that can be used with new transgenic herbicide traits in soybean.

Key Benefactors:
farmers, agronomists, extension agents
