Brief Project Summary:

Herbicide resistance continues to be a major concern for Maryland soybean growers, particularly with palmer amaranth, common ragweed, common waterhemp and marestail. Previous research demonstrated the efficacy of various pre-emergent herbicide treatments for Palmer amaranth control. This research continues investigating strategies that will provide season-long control of Palmer amaranth. It evaluates combinations of pre-emergent herbicides with delayed early post residual herbicides and timed post-emergence herbicides. It continues to include evaluation of burndown treatments prior to planting, and evaluation of pre-emergent herbicides for confirmed ALS resistant common ragweed.

Final Project Results

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
