With all of the rain parts of the Southeast have had, scheduling field work and figuring out when to apply herbicides can be an issue. Morning Ag Clips posted a story today that described some of the factors that need to be considered when trying to fit in applications.

The article was written for farmers in Illinois, but I think should be generally applicable to the Southeast too.
