Control of Glyphosate Resistant Waterhemp in Glyphosate Resistant Soybeans
Common waterhemp resistance to multiple herbicide modes-of-action including ALS, HPPD, PPO and triazine herbicides has been reported. Control of weeds with multiple-resistance becomes challenging as herbicides that once controlled a population become ineffective. Season-long control using a multiple-mode-of-action approach is now needed for common waterhemp control in areas with multiple-resistance.

Seed Size and Shape Issues in Corn
Questions arise every year regarding effects of seed size and shape on plantability and yield potential. Following manufacturers' recommendations and considering tools to enhance plantability can help limit the risk of poor plantability. If plantability concerns related to seed size are managed properly, the effect of seed size may not significantly affect yield potential under most conditions.
