In this episode of the Agronomy Answers podcast, Zach introduces a new segment called Blind Rankings and puts Brian Hefty to the test. The challenge is simple but not easy. Brian has to rank tough to control weeds without knowing what is coming next.
They work through five common problem weeds and discuss why some rise to the top based on resistance, seed production, geography, and real-world control challenges. Brian explains how weed pressure varies by region, why certain weeds are more damaging long term, and which ones farmers can realistically manage with today’s tools.
