2008 Resolution: Be Proactive Against Weed Resistance!

As 2008 begins, it’s time to reflect on the past year and look to the future.  To ensure this growing season finds even more success than last year, evaluate what worked and what didn’t, and come up with new ways to solve old problems.  In the case of glyphosate resistance, now is a good time to evaluate last year’s plan and revise it accordingly so that resistance stays off your fields. Develop a mutli-year approach to remain diversified in your management program.

One way to figure out the best resistance management tactics is to share your stories with others and hear what they have to say.  What worked for you and what didn’t?  Did you have resistance in your fields?  What are your biggest concerns for the season ahead?  Please share your reflections and ideas here, and check back to see what others have to share.
