According to our recent survey, waterhemp has become the most concerning weed species in Wisconsin row crop production. Glyphosate-resistant waterhemp has been confirmed in 25 counties, and PPO-resistant waterhemp has been confirmed in four.

To learn more about waterhemp management in soybean, join us for a tour of our challenge plots that showcase comparisons of 29 PRE-emergence soybean herbicides, the value of no-till and cover crops for waterhemp suppression, and a systems approach for weed control in Xtend soybean. Additionally, waterhemp management in corn will be discussed and shown through the use of residual herbicide, no-till, and cover crops.

Registration begins at 8:30 with coffee and donuts. The field day concludes at noon with sandwiches.
