There is a new “Mid-Atlantic Field Crop Weed Management Guide” developed by weed specialists from Penn State, Univ. of Delaware, Univ. of Maryland, Virginia Tech, Rutgers University and West Virginia Univ. The 266-page guide covers corn, sorghum, soybean, small grains, and hay and pastures. The guide includes information on commonly used herbicides for these crops, including relative effectiveness for burndown, preemergence, and postemergence control of most of the common weeds in the region. In addition, there are tables on premixes and what is included in the premixes, and a section on management of problem weeds. The guide is only available on-line at https://extension.psu.edu/mid-atlantic-field-crop-weed-management-guide. Available on-line are the printed copies for $25 + shipping, an enhanced pdf copy for use on computers and tablets for $15, or both a hard copy and pdf for $35 + shipping.
