Cindy Vogel 202 W Main PO Box 528 Ness City (785) 798-3139 Cell: (785) 798-7421 CindyVogel.com I know there have been moments this year where it seems like time is dragging on, but don’t look now, the year is half over. Yes, there have been things that have gone down in the first half of the year that are beyond many of our control, but there are times when it seems like the days are flying by, maybe it’s just me. One thing that seems to have moved quickly through our area is wheat harvest. While there were some that started cutting around June 16, once things were dry enough for the machines to get in the field, the majority of action seemed to fly by at a fairly quick pace. Now that most of the wheat is out of the field, and we’ve had a little moisture throughout the area, many producers have adjusted their focus to weed control. Without a canopy of wheat creating shade on the weed seedlings, and the moisture, things will more than likely green up in a hurry, if not kept in check. So with the growing issue, this week I thought I would share some information from retired specialist Dallas Peterson on controlling weeds post-wheat harvest. Post-harvest weed control in wheat stubble is very important to conserve soil moisture and prevent weeds from going to seed. Wet weather during harvest, will likely require earlier and more intensive weed management efforts this year. Also, where there are bare spots due to hail damage or flooding, weeds may be growing quickly. Controlling these weeds while there is moisture and active growth, before they set seed, is a good idea. The standard treatment for many years to control weeds and volunteer wheat in wheat stubble was glyphosate plus 2,4-D LVE. If kochia was present, we may have added some dicamba. Glyphosate plus 2,4-D and/or dicamba remain a primary option for weed control in stubble, but with the development of glyphosate-resistant weeds, these options don’t work as well as they used to. Glyphosate used to be fairly foolproof, even on big weeds, but that is no longer the case. Dicamba and 2,4-D probably weren’t contributing as much to the weed control in those tank mixes as we may have thought, so now we are struggling to achieve control. Consequently, it is very important to try and apply those treatments before the weeds exceed 4 to 6 inches tall. In addition, treatment before weeds exceed 4 inches tall may require a number of applications to manage multiple flushes of weeds, which adds significantly to the cost of control. Higher rates of 2,4-D and dicamba may improve control, but in most cas- es we probably don’t want to exceed 1 qt/acre of 2,4-D or a pint/acre of dicamba. Sharpen is another herbicide tank-mix partner that may help with control of pigweeds and provide some residual control. Sharpen works best with the addition of methylated seed oil and can provide some pretty good burndown on smaller weeds, but if the weeds are very big, it tends to burn the tops and plants eventually resume growth. Applying 2 or 3 oz/ acre of Sharpen instead of 1 oz/acre will improve control of larger weeds and provide longer residual control. Sharpen requires complete coverage so using 15 to 20 gallons/acre spray solution is important. One herbicide alternative to glyphosate that can work to control emerged pigweed and kochia is para- quat. Paraquat is a contact herbicide, so coverage is critical. Spray volumes of 20 gallons/acre or higher are preferred, especially on larger weeds. Paraquat also needs to be applied with a nonionic surfactant or oil con- centrate to enhance surface coverage of the plant foliage. A tank mix with atrazine will enhance control and provide some residual weed control if planning to plant corn or sorghum next spring. If planting wheat this fall, a tank mix with Sharpen is an option to provide some residual control. Another herbicide that can be added to the burndown treatments for residual broadleaf weed control in wheat stubble is flumioxazin. Flumioxazin has been used as a pre-plant/pre-emergence treatment in soybeans for years, but it hasn’t been used much in wheat stubble because of the cost. However, with the reduction in flumioxazin prices, it may be worth considering as part of our stubble management treatments for residual weed control, especially the pigweeds. Residual weed control with flumioxazin will depend on rainfall for activation.

Paraquat also needs to be applied with a nonionic surfactant or oil con-centrate to enhance surface coverage of the plant foliage. A tank mix with atrazine will enhance control and provide some residual weed control if planning to plant corn or sorghum next spring. If planting wheat this fall, a tank mix with Sharpen is an option to provide some residual control. Another herbicide that can be added to the burndown treatments for residual broadleaf weed control in wheat stubble is flumioxazin. Flumioxazin has been used as a pre-plant/pre-emergence treatment in soybeans for years, but it hasn’t been used much in wheat stubble because of the cost. However, with the reduction in flumioxazin prices, it may be worth considering as part of our stubble management treatments for residual weed control, especially the pigweeds. Residual weed control with flumioxazin will depend on rainfall for activation.
