Subject: RE: Cheap and effective corn pre


Southwest Illinois
Personally I don't think any of this stuff works well incorporated unless you are talking some type of harrow or limited vertical tillage where you may want to do some burn down at the same time. We typically run a field cultivator in front of all our corn, one pass is old bean stubble. Generally we are working it deep enough to kill anything and take out any tracks, in our soils that is generally too deep to gain much control of these small seeded broadleaves that like to germinate in the top 1/2" of the soil. If you are making the pass with the sprayer and want to run anything I would look at an atrazine or simazine type product. Obviously what works here in SW IL may not be the best for you. We generally lay 2-3 pts of Degree and 1lb of Atrex immediately after planting and come back with glyphosate and a small shot of Atrex at about 10" tall. Very cheap and very effective for us as we have been doing it 15 years or more.
