Study finds cover crops can reduce waterhemp pressure

Aug 31, 2021 to Sep 02, 2021 Cover crops have long been touted as a way to reduce weeds in fields. One University of Missouri study found that one cover crop helps in management of the fast-growing weed waterhemp. Waterhemp has been known to grow up to 1 inch per day, making control difficult. However, MU Extension weed scientist Mandy Bish and a team of researchers studied how planting soybeans into a green cover crop helps with early-season waterhemp emergence. The group used cereal rye as its cover crop of choice. What she found was the method may reduce waterhemp populations without yield loss. The Missouri Soybean Merchandising Council funded the research.
