Weed Control Field Day
Author: T. Adam Probst
Planning Unit: Woodford County CES
Major Program: Forages
Plan of Work: Commercial Production
Outcome: Initial Outcome
In Woodford County, 73% of all farmland is established in hay and forage crops. As such, weeds can often impact not only forage yields, but quality as well. The Woodford County Extension Service partnered with the Woodford County Beef Cattle Association and Extension Weed Scientists that had established weed control plots at the C. Oran Little Research Center located in Versailles to conduct a county-wide field day looking at new technologies in weed control in those forage crops. Twenty producers in attendance all indicated that they would try these new technologies that could improve their yield and quality of livestock feed/forage.
