Herbicide Resistance

[furrowtickler]

oh no you don't, farmers have been passing the buck far too long. There isn't much profit margin left in products long off patent.

More importantly, what are you doing? What are your commissions doing? What are you doing to advocate to consumers you're not trying to kill them? What are farm orgs doing to directly deal with upcoming resistance issues?

And the "you" is farmers, not beaverdam specifically.

We have been passing the buck far too long ... lol
So now it’s our fault lol ... wow

Spoken like a true chem retailer

I thought you were the ‘policy’ guy/girl. What do you want, what a waste of time you are.

Maybe go express your inherent rage at a post about something less serious, like the lobster one. Or go kick your dog again.

Furrow, it's not your fault, plants adapt and resistance is a natural progression. The smart business person sees an upcoming major problem and begins dealing with it or at the very least trying to deal with it. Are you a smart business person or not?

Ya not sure what the deal is here .
We don’t have an issue , but tweety on a mission lol . I guess maybe because I was the only one to reply.
Proper herbicide and crop rotation and using multiple modes of action in some crops seems to be very effective.
Having a planter that we can seed different crops allows us some more flexibility as well.
He is rambling on and on about weed resistance, must be a problem where ever he / she is at .

Guess “it” hasnt seen all the trials you have posted
No one on here does more thinking outside the box than you from my standpoint ?
Just the instigator/troll way , offer SFA to the conversation , just argue black is white

Resistance refers to a herbicide that had a target site on a plant and controlled it, but no longer does. Just like drug resistance, fungicide resistance etc. Worked before, doesn't work now.

Special interest lobbying could result in the loss of a herbicide - like glyphosate. Even sadder/worse then resistance.

Agree for sure , so what is your solution?

My solution is for farmers to recognize the seriousness of this problem and do something about it. Stop ignoring it.
