We have a winner of the FMC Let’s Talk Shop contest for 2022. He’s an awesome, fifth-generation farmer in Saskatchewan.

Knowing when, where and how to scout is key to protecting yield from true armyworm.

True armyworm undergoes complete metamorphosis from egg to larvae, pupa and adult moth. It’s the larvae that eat corn, wheat and forage crops.

Don’t abandon your pre-seed application in a cold spring. Follow these protocols when spraying FMC pre-seed herbicides when there’s frost.

A cold spring shouldn’t force you to change your overall weed-control strategy. Watch daily temperatures closely, choose the right timing, and spray your pre-seed herbicide when the right opportunity shows itself.

You never know when insects are going to hit your fields, eating your crop right out from under you. But you need to be ready.

Yield reduction up to 75% reported as weed continues to spread through Ontario and Quebec

Agronomists in Quebec are developing protocols to deal with infestations of waterhemp that have caused significant yield loss in soybean fields.

The research and experience in the field is unequivocal: The right pre-seed burnoff is critical to guarding yield potential.

Lack of moisture was a big challenge in 2021. Among other things, a pre-seed burnoff takes out weeds before they can rob the crop of soil moisture and nutrients.
