Agronomist Reviews New Chemical Weed Killers
University of Illinois agronomist F. W. Slife surveys Ramrod Tordon non-phytotoxic oils and Amiben as pre emergent weed controls. Ramrod may suit corn soybeans sugar beets and some vegetables with longer soil residues and better broad leaf control. Tordon shows promise against brush and perennial broad leaves with crop sensitivity concerns. Amiben offers pre emergent use on corn with optimal rates around 1 2 pounds when combined with other chemicals.
