Farmers preparing for the upcoming growing season know weed management will be crucial.
Operation Weed Eradication campaign lead Dr. Anna Alicea with BASF says there are several strategic pillars they are promoting.
“So cultural mechanical practices, making sure that the crop gets a competitive advantage over pigweed that can help disrupt weed seed germination and eliminate plant tissue.”
She tells Brownfield that can be accomplished with narrow row spacing, cover crops, tillage, and cultivation.
