From the Past… • “Time and again our best efforts to improve Nature have foundered
on some factor we failed to consider” – Allan Savory Holistic
Resource Management (1988)
• “Repeating a successful practice is not a problem in the world of
assembly lines and machines, where all „genotypes‟ are defined.
But living systems with inherently high levels of variation and
diversity rapidly adapt to repeated practices. Adaptation is more
difficult when practices are diverse.” – Harker Weed Sci. 52:183
(2004)
• “In the U.S. we are putting 150 Million Pounds of Glyphosate on 100
Million Acres of Cropland every year. What do you think is going to
happen?” – John Wilcut, NC State (2007)

GR Palmer Amaranth in Tennessee - Let‟s talk “Selection Pressure”
• 4 fields of continuous cotton for ≥ 6 yr (Steckel et al. 2008 Weed Technol. 22:119-123)
• Herbicide regime
– Preseed Burn-off: Gly (0.84 kg/ha) + dicamba
– 1st In-crop: Gly (0.84 kg/ha) – early POST
– 2nd In-crop: Gly (0.84 kg/ha) – prior to 5 leaves
– 3rd In-crop: Gly (0.84 kg/ha) + diuron – POST-directed (PD)
– Some years – 4th In-crop: Gly (0.84 kg/ha) + diuron PD
• All 4 fields with 2x to 4x rate Palmer amaranth resistance to glyphosate
• Palmer amaranth populations in Georgia are confirmed resistant to 12x rates of glyphosate (Culpepper et al. 2006 – Weed Sci. 54:620-626) – much more in 2010!

Crop Competition Study…
• Rapid crop growth limits resource availability to weeds
• Strong crop competition minimizes herbicide inputs
and enhances herbicide performance (IWM)
• Hybrid canolas compete more strongly with weeds
than open pollinated cultivars (Harker et al. 2003,
Zand & Beckie 2002) and could rival barley as a
competitor
• OBJECTIVE: Determine species/cultivars and the
environmental conditions that favor rapid resource
capture and strong crop competition with weeds
![Page 22: IWM in a HT Canola World - University of Manitoba€¦ · 1st – Real IWM Ehler (2006) – Pest Manag. Sci. 62:787-789 • Is NOT tank-mixing herbicides (the “other IWM”) •](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042915/5f50242fa69f133db437ee2d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Materials & Methods
• Direct Seeding Experiment (Conserva-Pak) at 4 AAFC
sites (Lacombe, Lethbridge, Beaverlodge, Scott) in 2006-
2008 and at U of S (Saskatoon) in 2007-2008
• Several different types of spring canola (seed rate 150
seeds/m2) were compared to the spring cereals (seed
rate 300 seeds/m2) barley, wheat, triticale and rye.
• Cultivated oat was seeded across all plots to simulate a
weed infestation and to ensure relatively uniform “weed”
densities across plots.
• The experiment was designed as a randomized complete
block with 4 replications. Plot size = 3.7 x 15 m

• How much is left on the ground?
• How much goes in and then out of the combine?
• How many seeds will volunteer to be a weed?
• IWM is careful harvesting!

Summary
• Using different herbicides is NOT IWM
• Seeding and fertilizing carefully is IWM
• Growing competitive cultivars is IWM
• Crop rotation is IWM
• Combining optimal agronomics is IWM
• Harvesting carefully is IWM
• Even HT canola hybrids benefit from IWM!
