Much of the rice around the state is ready for a permanent flood.
Wind continues to terrorize farmers and applicators.
The applicators have even struggled to put out dry materials. I m sure there was a time, but I don t remember the wind ever being this bad for such a long period of time. 2000 has been the year for residual herbicides. Most of the state has received timely rains that have kept the residuals activated. Those who did not use a residual in these rainy areas have experienced flush after flush of grass and continue to fight it.
