“We want to understand how to best protect technologies and herbicides within rice and other crops," says Jason Norsworthy, University of Arkansas weed scientist. "Towards that end, we’ve done a lot of modeling work, initially with Palmer amaranth in cotton.”
“Many of the strategies recommended today came out of the initial modeling work we did on glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth. For example, the overlaying of residual herbicides and making sure you provide season-long weed control and prevent escapes are a result of our modeling efforts.”
