 Welcome to Soybean Minute, your source for timely soybean news. I'm North Dakota Soybean Council Director Rob Rose from Wimbledon. Soybean farmers are currently dealing with some tough-to-control weeds such as waterhemp, ragweed and kochia. Herbicide resistance remains to be a massive challenge in soybean production. Weed control can be difficult because many producers did not have time to apply pre-emergence herbicides in some fields. Early weed control is key for maximizing soybean yield and crop performance.
