SPINY AMARANTH CONTROL AND AMINOPYRALID PERSISTENCE IN KENTUCKY PASTURESEdwards, Meghan Elizabeth 01 January 2010 (has links)
Spiny amaranth is a problematic weed of heavily grazed pastures in Kentucky and surrounding states. The first objective was to evaluate spiny amaranth control when herbicides are applied before and after emergence. Spiny amaranth seed collected in 2008 were seeded in rows in the fall (November) and the following spring (March) in fields located near Lexington and Princeton, KY. Treatments consisted of five application dates and five herbicides plus an untreated control arranged in a split-split plot design. The following parameters were measured: fresh weight, plant height and percent visual control. At both locations pendimethalin applied in November, March and April before spiny amaranth emergence gave the greatest control and significantly reduced fresh weight biomass compared to other treatments. June applications of 2,4-D reduced plant height and provided 80 control. Fresh weight biomass and height were also reduced with dicamba, aminopyralid and aminocyclopyrachlor applied in June compared to pendimethalin and the untreated control.
A soybean bioassay was conducted to measure soil dissipation of aminopyralid, a common pasture herbicide active ingredient. Soil samples were collected from two sites in Lexington and Princeton. During a season of above average rainfall aminopyralid had dissipated from the soil within 16 weeks at Lexington and by 4 weeks at Princeton.

THE EFFECT OF INTEGRATED WEED MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES ON WEED POPULATIONS AND BIOMASS, PASTURE PRODUCTIVITY, ECONOMIC RETURNS, AND FORAGE QUALITY WITH AND WITHOUT GRAZINGTolson, Joshua Allen 01 January 2012 (has links)
Field studies examined the strategies of mowing, herbicide, fertility, and all combinations on tall ironweed populations, weed biomass, pasture yield, grazing, economics, and forage quality at three Kentucky locations. Mowing was performed in July 2008 and 2009, herbicide applied in August 2008, and fertilizer applied in September 2008 and 2009 at all locations. Weed populations were measured in 2008, 2009, and 2010, and forage and weed biomass collected in May or June of 2009 and 2010. Herbicide treatments reduced weed biomass at all locations, and reduced tall ironweed stems by 64% or greater in 2009 at all locations. Weed biomass did not differ when comparing all treatments with and without mowing or treatments with or without fertilizer. Forage grass biomass produced was greatest with herbicide plus fertilizer and with the combination of mowing plus herbicide plus fertilizer at all locations in both years. Two years of grazing did not reduce weed populations. Grazing did reduce forage grass and clover biomass at one location, and weed biomass at two locations. Two locations had positive economic returns based on herbicide treatment for weed control and forge yield. Herbicide treatments reduced crude protein at one location and in-vitro true digestibility at two locations.

Evaluating Integrated Weed Management: Russian Knapweed Control With Goat Grazing and AminopyralidAlder, Clarke G. 01 May 2013 (has links)
Russian knapweed (Acroptilon repens) is an invasive perennial forb that has become well established in much of the western United States and Canada since the late 1800s. Aminopyralid is a relatively new pyridine carboxylic acid herbicide registered for use on rangelands and has provided excellent control of Russian knapweed in many studies. Research trials were conducted on two adjacent plot sites at Dinosaur National Monument to evaluate the effects of a single spring goat grazing paired with a fall application of aminopyralid at 0, 53, 70, 88, and 105 g ae ha-1 on Russian knapweed control. Russian knapweed density, canopy cover, and biomass were reduced to 0 or near 0 by all rates of aminopyralid, regardless of grazing treatment. Conversely, desirable grass cover and biomass increased at all rates of aminopyralid regardless of grazing treatment. Aminopyralid provided excellent control of Russian knapweed at all rates tested. Desirable perennial grass species have the potential to be injured when growth regulator herbicides are used for broadleaf weed control. Greenhouse trials performed at Utah State University and field trials performed in Logan, UT from 2009&ndash2011 evaluated tolerance and response of six native perennial bunchgrasses to growth regulator herbicides. Grasses used in the study included tall wheatgrass, bluebunch wheatgrass, Great Basin wildrye, Indian ricegrass, big bluegrass, and bottlebrush squirreltail. Two rates each of aminopyralid, aminocyclopyrachlor, and clopyralid were evaluated. Herbicide test rates were based on the labeled rate for control of Russian knapweed and other creeping perennials. Tolerance to herbicides varied among grass species. Petri&ndashdish trials showed reductions in root length by all three herbicides in all six speceis 14 days after treatment (DAT). Shoot length was significantly reduced by both rates of aminopyralid (123 and 246 g ae ha-1) and 280 g ai ha-1 of amincyclopyrachlor. The same species were evaluated in the field and greenhouse in response to postemergence applications of the same herbicides. Of the six grass species tested, &lsquoSherman&rsquo big bluegrass appeared to be highly tolerant to aminopyralid, clopyralid, and aminocyclopyrachlor, and &lsquoMagnar&rsquo Great Basin wildrye and Anatone bluebunch wheatgrass appeared to be the most sensitive to aminopyralid and aminocyclopoyrachlor in both the field and the greenhouse.

Evaluation of auxinic herbicides for broadleaf weed control, tolerance of forage bermudagrass hybrids [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.], and absorption and translocation in common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.)Moore, Frederick Thomas 29 August 2005 (has links)
These studies were conducted on several central Texas agricultural producers??
properties, the Stiles Farm Foundation, the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station, and
the Texas A&M University campus. First, an experimental herbicide from Dow
AgroSciences, GF-884, was evaluated for effectiveness in controlling three annual and
three perennial weed species in production pasture lands and hay meadows. Several
rates of GF-884 were examined and evaluated against three registered pasture products
and one non-selective herbicide. Next, GF-884 was assessed for tolerance on two
common bermudagrass hybrids (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.) at three progressive rates
with and without adjuvant. Finally, the herbicides, picloram and fluroxypyr, were
applied to common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.) to characterize their individual
absorption and translocation and assess any influence one might have on the other.
GF-884 applied at rates of 0.91 and 1.14 kg a.e./ha provided >85% and >75%
control of the annual and perennial weed species evaluated, respectively. These same
rates of GF-884 consistently provided control that was equivalent or better than thatachieved with the registered products. No differences were observed among treatments
when shoots from the perennial species were evaluated 12 months following treatment
application. The tolerance experiments utilized GF-884 at rates twice that used to
evaluate weed control efficacy. These elevated rates did not result in discernable
influences on yield or forage quality for either hybrid forage grass when compared to
untreated areas. The efficacy and tolerance observations suggest that GF-884 applied at
the highest recommended weed control rate can effectively control several annual and
perennial weed species without imparting detrimental effects to the hybrid bermudagrass
being produced.
Finally, in the presence of fluroxypyr, 14C picloram absorption was maintained
throughout all sampling intervals. Picloram applied alone, maximized 14C absorption at
6 HAT then declined significantly. At the final sampling, 14C from picloram applied
alone was in greater concentration in the treated leaf and the root.
Picloram significantly decreased absorption of 14C fluroxypyr. Fluroxypyr alone
maintained 14C absorption throughout all samplings, whereas the combination
maximized at 12 HAT. Initially, picloram limited 14C translocation, however at 6, 12,
and 24 HAT this was not evident.
