1) Lately, I have received a few questions about controlling Italian/annual ryegrass in preplant burndown situations. Assuming resistance is not an issue, glyphosate can be effective but remember that rate and timing are very import (Figure 1). If you suspect that glyphosate-resistance (GR) is an issue, check out page 85 of the 2024 UGA Pest Control Handbook. On the bottom of page 85, I have more detailed information about controlling GR-ryegrass.

2) Via a FIFRA Section 24(c) label, the crop rotation restriction for peanut in Georgia following an application of Reviton (tiafenacil) has been reduced to 0 days (1 oz/A ) and 7 days (2 oz/A). Refer to the 24(c) label below. Check out the February 7, 2022 and March 31, 2023 posts on the UGA Weed Science Blog for some earlier comments about Reviton.
