Cotton Means Dollars In The Fall In North Alabama

Indications point to 1968 being a record cotton year for 16 North Alabama counties with potential gross income over 75 million dollars if weather cooperates. Officials urge planting at least 95 percent of the allotment with March 15 as the deadline at county ASCS offices as they open Saturdays to assist farmers.

Herbicide options for post-emergence corn weed control

Guidance suggests using Caparol post-emergence even after pre-plant incorporation, with multiple applications if needed. Directed mid season sprays target problem weeds that reduce yields, and Caparol can be mixed with DSMA or MSMA for faster knockdown and enhanced control. Atrazine noted for corn use.

Atrazine Promises Long Lasting Weed Control in Corn

Atrazine offers control of annual broadleaf weeds and grasses without harming corn. The herbicide moves into the root zone via rainfall or can be activated by shallow cultivation if rainfall is lacking. Visible weed response is a yellowing then death, with flexibility for broadcast or band application and use with liquid fertilizers.
