Every year new products are registered for use in Maine. Growers need to alternate herbicide modes of action to prevent weed resistance.
Many new products are less leachable than many of the currently used products.
We evaluated Balance, a new preemergence herbicide being considered for registration in the east. We are also evaluating two new annual grass herbicides Dual II- Magnum and Axiom for corn and potatoes, as well as, herbicide tolerant corn and soybeans for Maine growing conditions. We hope that our information will help growers make informed weed management decisions. See left column for pictures and specific study reports.
