Listen I never quit using pre emerge like some of my neighbors. I don't have as big of a problem as some them do, but I still have resistance. I went to meeting after meeting from 1995-2002 where the experts from Monsanto told producers that pre's and ppi's were a waste of money and that resistance would never happen. They bear as much responsibility as do producers. Sandy soils in this area have always been the ones that resistance was first established on any of the herbicide mode of actions that I named in the earlier post. As far as your scoffing of the growers in my area, we have to manage our farms. We don't drag a planter through the field and call the co-op then wait for harvest. A trained monkey can farm no-till corn and soybeans in a non-irrigated situation.
there is more to weed management than chemicals
sandy soils don't poop resistant weed seed, poor management selects for resistant weeds
scoffing, lol, maybe you shouldn't say that your neighborhood houses the best farmers in the world yet complain you have resistant weed problems, again poor management
call the coop for what?
you obviously have never dealt with cold 2:1 clay in the spring
irrigation takes 3 things; water, cooler of beer, and a beat up Jeep. course its more fun if the trained monkey drives
