Horseweed is considered one of the most troublesome weeds in the United States and Canada - able to produce devastating losses in both corn and soybean yields when left uncontrolled. Two recent studies - one published by the journal Weed Science and the other by the journal Weed Technology - provide insights on the role cover crops might play in controlling horseweed and reducing the need for herbicides.

Commodity Classic | Commodity Classic Announces Transition to Digital Experience

FOR MORE INFORMATION Cathryn Wojicki (NCGA)636.733.5531 Wendy Brannen (ASA) wbrannen@soy.org Sandra Mason (AEM)920.342.4405 In-Person 2021 Event Will Not Take Place Due to COVID-19 Restrictions ST. LOUIS, MO (October 30, 2020)— Commodity Classic has announced it will transition its annual conference and trade show, originally scheduled for March 4-6, 2021, in San Antonio, Tex., to an alternative digital format.
