New Focus on Potato Webcast Covers Weed Resistance Management in Potato Rotation


Herbicide-resistant weeds pose significant economic and production challenges, particularly in specialty crops such as potatoes where weed control options are limited.

And as the threat of herbicide-resistant weeds continues to grow due to these limited modes of action, growers must focus on practical considerations of weed management that minimize the risk of herbicide resistance in weeds.

In the latest ‘Focus on Potato’ webcast, titled “Managing Weed Resistance to Herbicides in the Potato Rotation,” Dr. Jed Colquhoun, weed science professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison gives users an update on herbicide-resistant weeds and a systematic way to assign herbicides to crops across the rotation in a manner that maintains weed control while utilizing multiple herbicide modes of action.
