Preplant herbicides gain traction in dry years
UW agronomists urged proper label use and blending limits while noting dry 1976 and 1981 springs boosted interest in preplant soil incorporated herbicides. They highlighted Eradicane Bladex and atrazine blends, warned against overselling three way mixes, and discussed new and upcoming products and soybean weed controls.
Leafhopper Outbreak Tops Wisconsin Alfalfa Pests
UW Extension entomologist John Wedberg named the potato leafhopper as Wisconsin’s No 1 bad bug for alfalfa this season while corn damage was led by the corn rootworm. He advised early cut of first alfalfa crop, rotation of insecticides, and noted no alfalfa variety is immune to leafhoppers.
