2007 Peanut Weed Management Update for County Agents Eric P. Prostko Extension Weed Specialist Department of Crop & Soil Sciences The University of Georgia Extension Agent Training – December 2006
2
Changes in 2007 Pest Control Handbook – Peanut Weed Control Added Firestorm (generic paraquat) where appropriate Included Aim in burndown sections Added generic metolachlors but still included the following warning: The generic formulations of metolachlor (Parallel, Stalwart, Me-Too-Lachlor) have not provided the same length of residual control of certain weeds as similar rates of Dual Magnum formulations in some UGA field trials. Added a specific control rec for tropical spiderwort Table for ALS/GR-resistant pigweed control Added Propel (generic Outlook) Zorial to Solicam
3
Firestorm Chemtura –Great Lakes Chemical Corp. + Crompton Corp. 3 lb/gallon of paraquat Similar formulation as Gramoxone Max 5.4 to 10.8 ozs/A = normal rates
4
preplant burndown up to 24 hours after planting Up to 2 ozs/A –$5.00/oz Tank-mix with glyphosate
5
IMPOSE Generic liquid Cadre From Makhteshim Agan of North America (MANA)
6
How/Why do we let pigweeds get this big????
7
Will these herbicides control large pigweeds?

Palmer Amaranth Control with Cobra and 2,4-DB Cobra @ 12.5 ozs/A 2,4-DB @ 1.1 pts/A COC @ 1% v/v Applied to 17” tall pigweed
12
How do we manage ALS-resistant Palmer amaranth? Need to start using more PRE’S –Valor, Dual Magnum/generics, Outlook –Goal????? POST Herbicides –Timeliness –Cobra, Ultra Blazer, Paraquat –Over reliance on PPO’s Will need both PRE’s and POST’s Increased production costs

24
Cadre or Gramoxone fb Cadre??? 4 field trials conducted in 2005-2006 477 lb/A average yield increase when Gramoxone + Basagran was used prior to Cadre compared to Cadre alone It only takes a 64 lbs/A increase of peanuts to pay for this treatment
