Brief Project Summary:

The Weeds MRA is focused on preservation of soybean yield and profitability in an era of herbicide-resistant weeds by driving grower adoption of more effective strategies and technologies that improve sustainability. The Weeds MRA conducts broad research - from basic sciences in the laboratory to applied aspects in field trials - to deliver Illinois growers the necessary tools, management strategies and other pertinent information necessary to help them confront the challenge of herbicide-resistant weeds. Success will be measured by the knowledge growers gain from this research and the practices they implement to minimize the negative effect of herbicide-resistant weeds on soybean yield...
