January 8, 2004 2004 North Dakota Weed Control Guide Now Available The 2004 North Dakota Weed Control Guide is now available, according to Richard Zollinger, North Dakota State University Extension Service weed specialist. “The information in the guide provides a summary of herbicide uses for many crops grown in North Dakota. The guide is based on federal and state herbicide labels, research at North Dakota Agriculture Experiment Stations and other information from the North Dakota Department of Agriculture.” The guide is available from NDSU Extension Service County offices (circular W-253), NDSU Agriculture Communication at (701) 231-7882 and will soon be available on the Web at www.ag.ndsu.nodak.edu/weeds/ The guide has several sections:
“The guide has an easy-to-follow format that should help producers with sometimes difficult herbicide application decisions,” Zollinger says. “The guide also lists other publications that are available to provide even more specific information.” The information in the guide only applies to North Dakota, according to Zollinger. “That’s because many herbicide uses are allowed only by supplemental or specific labeling for North Dakota. Those using the supplemental or specific labeling are required to have the labeling in their possession at the time of application.” The guide provides an update on new or discontinued herbicides, possible 2004 Section 18 registrations and IR-4 projects for this year. Other NDSU research or extension contributors to the 2004 weed guide include: Duane Berglund, Alan Dexter, Greg Endres, Terry Gregoire, Kirk Howatt, Brian Jenks, George Kegode, Rod Lym, Calvin Messersmith, Andrew Thostenson and Harlene Hatterman-Valenti.
