Brief Project Summary:

The long-term objective of this project is to reduce the impact of herbicide-resistant weeds on soybean production and profitability while developing best management practices for herbicide-resistant weeds. This cannot be achieved within a set number of years, but it can adapt to the most pressing weed challenges as they evolve. The short-term objectives of this project are to outline the benefits and unintended consequences of applying post-emergence herbicide mixtures when targeting herbicide-resistant weeds; and identify the underlying mechanisms for herbicide-resistant weeds to allow for improved management recommendations. This research will guide the development of effective weed control strategies to enable more sustainable weed management and soybean production.

Key Benefactors:

Final Project Results

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
