Weed Control for Crops
Mississippi row-crops producers must manage a variety of factors over several months to reap what they sow. Controlling weeds effectively and efficiently is one of their primary concerns. MSU Extension specialists and agents share science-based information related to pre- and post-emergence herbicides, new technologies, crop injury, cover crops, crop rotation, and herbicide-resistant weeds through field days, workshops, on-farm demonstrations, “turnrow talks,” and the Mississippi Crop Situation blog.
