Although weeds cause many problems, they also have benefits. Sometimes they can be a pair of eyes.

[🇨🇦🇺🇸 Lynn Sosnoskie 🇺🇸🇨🇦 @LynnSosnoskie]

Heavy rain can lead to soil loss, the uneven distribution of herbicides, (which can result in variable control and crop injury in products pool in low spots), and the movement of weed seed.

Imagine a weed that grows over an inch a day, chokes out crops & shrugs off common herbicides. It’s not science fiction—it’s Palmer amaranth, & it’s a real threat.

Cornell research identifies threats and helps farmers fight back. https://t.co/1laMxKcKDa

🌿 How does #Japaneseknotweed thrive across continents?

A new study from USF features how this aggressive invasive weed has evolved since its spread from Japan to Europe & North America.

This is why we chose lasers for the future of weed control: unmatched precision, no damage to the crop, and no soil disruption.

Consider this your yearly reminder that henbit is not a cover crop...

[SoybeanResearchInfoNetwork @SoyResearchInfo]

How much crop yield is lost when weeds are present? Researchers with a @NDSoybean project are testing a model to estimate soybean yield loss from Palmer amaranth and waterhemp interference to show how weeds can impact yield. #USSoy https://t.co/RTniFF4FTn

Agtech casualties serve up warning about operational costs. Service provider instead of selling. Crowded market. But we still need more tech and more players. https://t.co/Q8wlXGvUkp

A Weed Science study shows Palmer amaranth devastates furrow-irrigated rice. Just one plant emerging 3–4 weeks after rice can reduce yield within 13 sq. ft., making weed-free fields essential year-round.

Recently discussed the importance of selecting residual herbicides with varying water solubility. Using herbicides with a range of solubilities increases the likelihood of successful weed control across different weather conditions. #LetsMessUpSomeWeeds

It’s time to plan for the 2025 growing season, and part of that includes #weedmanagement.

Does Microplastic Contamination in Agricultural Soils Decrease the Efficiency of Herbicides for Weed Control? https://t.co/SUpAn3YkCB #mdpimicroplastics via @MDPIOpenAccess

[Weeds of the Earth @WeedsoftheEarth]

Perennial weeds are always difficult to control. Even if their aboveground stems are eliminated they reappear from underground stems (e.g., rhizomes, tubers, bulbs)

[Flower Show @TheFlowerShow]

The heavy rains that have fallen in recent weeks in the Namibia Desert in Africa have caused one of the most spectacular natural phenomena, the flowering of millions of lilies that for tens of kilometers have covered the sandy soil that has dried completely for three years.
