Termination of Cotton Stalks with
Herbicides in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas 2002
|
ABSTRACT Thorough cotton stalk destruction is critical and state mandated in Texas as a tool to aid in the reduction of boll weevils. Adverse weather conditions and conservation tillage often prevent immediate and complete stalk destruction. The herbicide 2,4-D amine applied at one pound formulation per acre on shredded stalks, twice during a 30 day period, was proven to be 100% effective in terminating stalks. |
