Introduction
- Non-selective herbicides such as glyphosate and Gramoxone are used
to control emerged weeds prior to no-till planting. Tank-mixing of a
residual herbicide with glyphosate or Gramoxone can be used to improve
application efficiency with a "one-pass" weed management program.
- Refer to Chapter 6,
for preplant application rates for glyphosate and Gramoxone.
- It is also important to note that when targeting perennial weeds,
the addition of a triazine-based herbicide (i.e. atrazine, Converge
Pro, Primextra II Magnum) will reduce the level of activity achieved
with glyphosate. Increasing the rate of glyphosate should overcome this
antagonism.
