Corn tolerance and weed control with amicarbazone and metribuzin applied preemergence
Abstract Since the late 1950s, atrazine has been a cornerstone of corn (Zea mays L.) weed control, but decades of use have raised concerns about groundwater contamination and enhanced biodegradation. Therefore, amicarbazone and metribuzin were evaluated as alternatives to preemergence use of atrazine in corn.

Crop and soil responses to 24 years of wheat residue removal and tillage
Abstract Retaining crop residue on agricultural land mitigates soil erosion and conserves nutrients, but its removal generates a valuable commodity for competing uses in agriculture and industry. Understanding long‐term effects of crop residue removal on crop performance and soil condition is essential to guide management decisions regarding ...

Can soil detoxifiers mitigate crop injury from residual herbicides?
Abstract Sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) growers have limited herbicide options for in‐crop application, so they rely on weed control in rotational crops to minimize weed problems. Sugarbeet is sensitive to many herbicides used in corn (Zea mays L.), a common rotational crop, which effectively reduces weed control options elsewhere in the rotation ...

Sorghum tolerance and weed control with amicarbazone and metribuzin applied preemergence
Abstract Groundwater contamination has prompted the Environmental Protection Agency to consider restricting atrazine use, highlighting the need for alternative preemergence herbicides in grain sorghum (Sorghum Moench). Research was conducted in 2023 and 2024 to evaluate grain sorghum tolerance and weed control from preemergence applications of ...

Abstract Leafspot disease causes up to 70% yield losses in peanut production areas across the globe. One way to curb this menace is to use leafspot resistant peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) varieties. In breeding for disease resistance, quantitative characterization of disease dynamics, including initial inoculum (y0) and apparent infection rate (r), is ...

Abstract We studied the impacts of uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV)‐applied triclopyr + fluroxypyr on rangeland weeds and other forbs in native tallgrass prairie. Two rates were tested: high (0.63 kg ae ha−1 triclopyr + 0.21 kg ae ha−1 fluroxypyr) and low (0.21 kg ae ha−1 triclopyr + 0.07 kg ae ha−1 fluroxypyr).

ABSTRACT Introduction Firefighters may experience occupational exposure to per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Volunteer firefighters make up 65% of the US fire service, but their serum PFAS profiles have not been well characterized. This study aims to (1) describe PFAS serum profiles among US volunteer firefighters from 9 states enrolled in ...

ABSTRACT The current state of agricultural production is characterised by a linear model of production and consumption, which has led to negative environmental consequences. In Argentina, the agricultural sector plays a crucial role in the economy, particularly in the Pampas region.

ABSTRACT The common bean is vital for food security, but its productivity is often limited by competition with weeds, requiring the use of herbicides. The response of genotypes to herbicides such as fomesafen and imazamox is variable, and the traditional evaluation of phytotoxicity through visual methods is subjective.
