Resistant weeds are a constant problem for farmers. A crop protection specialist offers tips for 2018.

?Going into 2018, one of the things we need to remember is to start clean. Whether you are no-till or conventional till, it is important to get the crop off to a good start. Get those seedlings growing well and fast, DuPont Crop Protection Specialist Dave Johnson says.

Johnson says to also use a residual herbicide. ?Then timely post application (is important) and spray weeds when they are small.? Johnson attended the National Farm Broadcasting Convention in Kansas City in early November.
