Dr. Werle joins us to talk about planting soybeans green and how to terminate cover crops. 

Melissa Wilson, the manure specialist, talks about some stinky stuff this week and how manure is related to weed science. 

Curt Thompson came out of retirement to help us with this one. Kochia tumbleweeds are a common species that we all know a little too well. Curt gives us an insight into the characteristics, tolerance, and much more of the tumbleweed. 

Dawn Refsell, field science leader with Corteva, joins us to talk all things herbicide formulations. She covers multiple aspects of the formulations like discovery, development, the chemistry of them, and more. 

Mandy and Sarah are joined by Greg Dahl to discuss adjuvants and how you can utilize them. 

Ag extension offices and the specialists housed in them are among the most valuable assets any farmer can have. Tracing their roots back to clubs formed shortly after the American Revolution, today they use cutting-edge technology to help farmers with crops, sustainability, and profitability. Dr. Steve Linscombe welcomes three current extension specialists, Dr. Jarrod Hardke from Arkansas, Dr. Ronnie Levy from Louisiana, and California’s Dr. Bruce Linquist to explain what they do for the rice industry.

Anita Dille joins us this week to discuss peer-review publications and gives us some behind-the-scenes insight into the process of them. 

Precision weed management with Tom Wolf, Sarah, and Joe.  Check out our social media to find out more about Tom and the link to his website.

Sarah and Joe are joined by two guests, Carroll and Charlie, who are with the Syngenta company. They give you insights into herbicide registration from a company perspective. 

Bish and Ikley are joined by Tommy Butts from the University of Arkansas, to discuss herbicide technologies and application for next year. 

JD Green from the University of Kentucky is our guest for this episode and we talked with him about the resurgence of old threats, like cocklebur and velvetleaf. 

All three of our hosts are joined by a panel of weed scientists this week. They are putting their minds together to update you on the herbicide shortage and how you can prepare for it. 

The risks and the advantages of planting soybeans early are on the agenda for this episode. 

Sarah and Joe are joined by Dr. Senseman from OSU and they cover herbicide carryover potential, herbicide degradation, and bioassays. 

Join Joe Ikley as he discusses the field condition updates and the current herbicide conditions. We will return back to our full length episodes in September! 

Every year, farmers put their net worth in the ground, believing they will have a crop to harvest at the end of the season. They can improve their odds with good crop protection practices. Host Steve Linscombe is joined by Arkansas rice farmer Sidney Robnett, LSU weed scientist Dr. Eric Webster, and Texas A&M etymologist Dr. Mo Way to unpack the complex and vital crop protection game.

Michael and Lesley also talked with California rice farmer Matthew Sligar about his new children’s book, Daddy’s Got Dirt.
