[Title Slide – Glyphosate Resistant Pigweed in Round-up Ready Soybean. Your Arkansas Soybean Podcast, University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture, Arkansas Soybean Promotion Board. Number 35 - June 21, 2010]
[Dr. Bob Scott, Extension Weed Scientist standing in a soybean field holding pigweed] Glyphosate resistant Palmer Pigweed is one of the most troubling weeds to try and control in Round-Up Ready or conventional soybeans. [Picture of a soybean field] The particular field that we are standing in here was determined the previous year to be fully infested with glyphosate resistant pigweed. [Picture of Dr. Scott walking across a soybean field] This year the Cooperative Extension Service came in and we recommended a residual program of Valor applied early in a burn-down, followed by Authority MTZ pre-emerge, followed by Flexstar GT early post. [Title slide - Valor Herbicide - Early Burndown, Authority MTZ pre-emerge, Flexstar GT early post.]
[Dr. Bob Scott] We‘re a few days out from that early post application now and we’ve basically [Picture of weeds that have been burned down] thrown several herbicides at this problem with fairly good results. One problem in controlling glyphosate resistant Pigweed in [Dr. Bob Scott] Round-Up Ready soybeans is that we need to use the concept of overlapping residuals. [Title slide - Overlapping Residuals. Valor Herbicide - Early Burndown, Authority MTZ pre-emerge, Flexstar GT early post.] In other words we try to use enough residual products to never let the pigweed get started.
[Title slide - Flexstar GT, Flexstar, early post-emergence pigweed control.] Flexstar GT or Flexstar does a pretty good job post-emerge controlling emerged Palmer Amaranth if we get them when they’re very small. [Slide showing pigweed that is 2-3 inches tall] Two to three inch Palmer Pigweed can be controlled early post with Flexstar. [Dr. Bob Scott showing two different pigweeds] If we let the Pigweed get too big such as the one in my left hand, we get very good burn [Slide - picture showing a pigweed that has been burned down] or necrosis of the plant however we get reemerging leaves and [Dr. Bob Scott] stems at the axillary buds and this particular pigweed will probably recover.
It’s very important to start early with a residual and stay on top of your early post program and spray pigweeds when they are very small in Round-Up Ready soybeans.
