Ammonium Sulfate, and Methylated seed oil will help with the AIM (Carfentrazone), you are getting no value from the 2,4_D in Blackhawk, or the MCPA in Goldwing.

Resistant Kochia

It will be Group 2 resistant, and probably Group 9 Resistant too. Authority or Authority charge with AMS, and MSO, if next crop is registered. The MSO shouldn't go with glyphosate.

Thanks everyone. ...

Most Chem reps that seen my fields this year shrugged their shoulders and gave my chemical back...all my goldwing and Blackhawk was reimbursed....big deal still lost the crop due to ineffective weed control....

I hired a forensic agronomist for another issue....

That is one area we could use more of.....I should have hired one in 2017.....

If the government wants to help agriculture by seed taxes, and chemical monitoring etc.....they should be providing independent forensic agrologists to the industry as well....

Farmers need a source of reliable and respected people that when things go wrong. ..the report will have teeth for compensation without hiring a lawyer....

My existing issues could take years to settle.....and that's what both the retailer and their insurance company are hoping for....that I absorb the loss....

Next year I won't be waiting for the retail/chemical Cos to ignore my complaint....I will spend the money on forensics....

Teaching them the hard way....the dumb****led farmer...

BTW if BASF has called you about residual effects of SOLO, ODYSSEY or VIPER for 2019..consider yourself to have been told there will be no compensation for their effects because you had time to make other plans....

Bucket any chance there was road dust on the leaves when you did your first pass with chemical. I have seen fields where that is a problem along grid roads. I try to time spraying Roundup after a rain and in the morning.

Nope...some fields are 1/2 mile from roads....and the worst field has 150 feet of alfalfa between it and the road....

But the fields along the roads are sprayed more carefully...I watch the weather for opportunities to spray there...

How did the Admix of barley and wheat in seed issue turn out?

Well since the durum didn't get done before the rain ,,,,the downgrading from the weather allowed more extras and really turned out as a 3cwad...But with all the extras it would have been a three before the rain as well.

Just wondering how your seed got contaminated in first place? Seems funny it would have 2 admixes. I could see 1 if he had been cleaning one or other just before and didn't properly clean out equipment.

Bingo....

Have never had wheat on the field in question so it wasn't a residual issue....havent grown barley for years....worse yet it was 1cwad going into the cleaner and 3cwad coming off the field due to contamination...

bin to cleaner to truck to drill in field....and they managed to **** it up and act stupid...
