June 10, 2024

DATE | June 2024

LOCATION | Dillon, SC

CROP | Soybeans

THREAT | Weeds and Stand Count

MISSION | 1 2 3 4 5 6

Weed and grass competition can severely impact crop stands, especially in dry conditions, making timely intervention crucial.

Weed and grass pressure were identified in the northwest section of the field using field health data and high-resolution imagery.
With no precipitation for the past three weeks, the stand count suffered as weeds robbed essential water and nutrients, resulting in a 66% stand versus the expected target.

Create a zone map of the field to develop a precise prescription application map, ensuring targeted and efficient herbicide use.

By identifying and only spraying where needed, the grower can save on herbicide costs while effectively controlling weed pressure and maintaining crop health.
