Many of you are probably familiar with the North Carolina Soybean Producers Association’s effort to eliminate herbicide resistant weeds, Weed Free NC. This campaign promotes taking a zero tolerance approach to getting rid of these weeds from pre-season field preparation and the use of pre-emergent products to post-emergent products before weeds are too large to be killed easily to pulling weeds by hand. The best practices aren’t difficult, but they do take effort, and will take consistent effort by everyone to address the growing problem.
