The registration change to lambda-cyhalothrin that prompted the recall of key insecticide brands like Matador® 120EC and Voliam Xpress® created a significant gap and concern for Canadian growers.
In response to this urgent market need, we are in the process of producing 3X to over 4X the volumes of our key insecticide brands compared to 2022 usage.
Herbicide layering is the one-two punch of agriculture. It’s the practice of using multiple herbicide groups and active ingredients at different application timings to control the same resistance-prone weeds. It’s a great way to control cleavers too.
In the early-season race between canola and cleavers, it’s no contest. Cleavers surge ahead and, left uncontrolled, will proliferate and harm your crop.
One single cleaver plant in the pre-emergence period does the damage of 100 cleaver plants in your canola just three weeks later. Get control BEFORE cleavers get out of control.
La plupart des plantes dépendent du changement saisonnier de la durée du jour et de la nuit pour déclencher la floraison. Ainsi, celle-ci a lieu au moment optimal de l’année.
Bonne nouvelle : Il existe un facteur qui a le potentiel d’augmenter le rendement du soya dans des proportions allant jusqu’à 36 %1! Il suffit que le soya se comporte davantage comme le maïs.
Nous savons tous que la lumière du soleil est essentielle à la croissance des plantes. Celles-ci tirent parti de l’énergie lumineuse pour transformer le dioxyde de carbone en énergie qu’elles peuvent utiliser pour leur croissance.
Mais qu’advient-il de ce processus par temps nuageux? Quelle quantité de rendement est perdue en raison des fluctuations de la lumière?
When resistance is confirmed on farm, we often think only of the increased herbicide costs. There are a number of other costs growers might incur, however. These can include:
Using glyphosate over and over again is asking for trouble. Layering in novel modes of action is an excellent resistance management strategy. Here's a plan to make that happen pre-seed and pre-emergent in wheat and lentils.
A weed scientist looked at managing kochia through the span of a four-year crop rotation. Learn the chemical and cultural practices that can manage the worst impacts of this weed and help contain its spread.
