13 Tilling The Big Three How do you control nutsedge? 13

14 Three rules for keeping nutsedge at bay: Soil fumigation (tubers are deep) Sanitation (aggressive) A weed management program A Nutsedge Program Cover crop: Permit (halosulfuron); Roundup ready corn Fallow land: Oust (sulfometuron); Roundup (glyphosate); Reflex (fomesafen); tank-mixes Methyl bromide fumigation (while it lasts) Reflex at time of sowing (for sandy nurseries) Production - Weekly applications of Goal (oxyfluorfen)-cobra (lactofen) Weekly applications of Goal Improve Weed Control Weekly Monthly 14

15 Monthly vs. Weekly Goal Applications nutsedge 80 weight (g) Alabama Arkansas Monthly Weekly Controlling Nutsedge with Herbicides Seedbeds Cover-crop Fallow How do you control spurge? 15

16 Spurge Herbicides: Rate of Product/Acre Cobra (lactofen) 13 oz Apply before 1 diameter Pendulum AquaCap (pendimethalin) 34 or 68 oz Apply at time of sowing Scythe 1 gal/acre Apply on hot day before 1 diameter 68 oz per acre = $30 per acre Prostrate Spurge the Living Mulch Reduced seedling height 16

(and lots of other weeds) The best approach is to follow a weekly Goal (oxyfluorfen) regime throughout the growing season. Take care of it in fallow. 24/ Trials with directed sprayers 18
