Author:  Comments Off on Weed Tour – Wednesday June 24

The University of Tennessee Weed Tour will be held Wednesday, June 24 at the West Tennessee Research & Education Center in Jackson, TN (605 Airways Blvd).Registration will start at 8:30 A.M. and the tour will begin at 9:00 A.M. The tour will end at noon. Due to construction on the buildings there will be no lunch served this year but we will have breakfast biscuits available during registration.

The tour will cover 60 weed management research tests in corn, soybean and cotton.  Most of the research shown will be on management of glyphosate resistant horseweed and Palmer amaranth.  Management of these weeds in Liberty and glyphosate based systems as well as some of the new herbicide technology traits on the horizon in cotton and soybeans will be highlighted. Moreover, cultural weed control practices and many of the newer premixes in corn and soybean will be demonstrated.  UT personnel will lead the tour and be available for consultation as well as discussion of issues and product performance.

Hope to see you there
