An agronomic service rep for Syngenta says a dry summer has been problematic for weed control.

Dean Grossnickle tells Brownfield waterhemp was hardened off because of harsh environmental conditions.

“And we really didn’t get the control or see the control of that weed that we were hoping for.”

He says farmers who overlap residual herbicides might be wondering why there are so many weeds in their soybean fields.

Grossnickle attributes that to an application early and an application late, with no protection in between.
