Stinkweed and Flixweed Threaten Winter Fallow Crops
Agriculture Canada urges late fall control of stinkweed and flixweed, which germinate in October and spread moisture competition. Best method is late fall spraying with 2.4-D ester at four to six ounces per acre, delaying cultivation to avoid erosion and preserve snow cover. Fall treatment eases spring work and can delay subsequent summer fallow.
