Cutleaf evening-primrose is a herbaceous winter annual or biennial weed with extremely wide variation in growth habits and leaf shapes. The species is common in agronomic fields, pastures, roadsides, gardens, and waste sites in Mississippi. Cutleaf evening-primrose can be a
Registration Register for the 2027 Row Crop Short Course. Registration is free of charge through November 25th. Registration at the door will be $40. Hotel Accommodations A discounted room block is available at the Courtyard Marriott for $159 per night.
Henbit is an erect or spreading winter annual weed that is commonly found in crop fields, roadsides, pastures, and lawns throughout Mississippi. Henbit is problematic in most spring-seeded crops such as corn, rice, and soybean. Like many other winter annual
Virginia pepperweed is a winter annual broadleaf weed that has become increasingly problematic in Mississippi row crop production systems. This species can emerge in both fall and spring, allowing dense populations to form before planting. While no confirmed herbicide-resistant populations
Horseweed is an erect winter annual weed that is problematic in most Mississippi row crops. This species emerges in early fall and forms a rosette throughout the winter. In spring, horseweed begins to elongate upward and may persist through early
Producers have until December 11 to choose between Agricultural Risk Coverage (ARC) and Price Loss Coverage (PLC) for 2026. The Farm Service Agency (FSA) opened election and enrollment on September 16. Elections are made crop by crop: each crop’s base
There have been several reports in late-planted soybean, particularly in Leflore and Humphreys counties, of “flat pods” (See picture below). What has happened in these areas is an incidence of seed abortion or arrested development (Wiebold 2012, https://ipm.missouri.edu/cropPest/2012/11/Arrested-Development-in-the-Soybean-Field-Part2/index.cfm). Arrested development
Italian ryegrass has been one of the most troublesome weeds in Mississippi for nearly 20 years. Many populations across the state are resistant to ALS herbicides, glyphosate, and ACCase herbicides such as diclofop and clethodim. Additionally, there have been some
Mississippi State goes to great lengths to evaluate corn hybrid performance. These Corn Hybrid Demonstration trials are grown in numerous on-farm locations throughout the state where you can better analyze hybrid performance of our region’s most elite hybrids. Preliminary grain yield results from this year’s trials are published here.
Management As with any successful weed control program, a multi-faceted approach is the most effective and economical strategy for managing Italian ryegrass. Mechanical and preventative control Italian ryegrass seed must be close to the soil surface (<0.5 in) for germination
