Tom Hoverstad Scientist at the Southern Research and Outreach Center at Waseca (SROC) has been very busy during the "winter meeting season" talking about controlling waterhemp. There was no travel time involved because most if not all were on Zoom because of COVID. One of Tom's major responsibilities is the herbicide trials and controlling one tough weed, waterhemp. Tom said his discussions centered around two points, controlling waterhemp with the tools we have available now and making sure you do not let any waterhemp go to seed in corn. On the first point there is no new chemistry or "magic bullet" that is in the pipeline or on the horizon. Therefore we need to figure out how do do a better job with what we have available now!
