“Georgia” Storm for Peanut\/Soybean Tank-Mixes (Prostko)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

1) Since the agent training in Tifton on June 6, I have had numerous questions about the “Georgia” Storm that I talked about in peanuts.  The commercial formulation of Storm 4SL from UPL is a pre-mixture (i.e. 1 jug) of acifluorfen (1.33 lbs ai\/gal) + bentazon (2.67 lbs ai\/gal).  The normal recommended use rate (by me<\/em>) of commercial Storm is 16 oz\/A when combined with Gramoxone (paraquat) in an early-post or “cracking” spray.  Storm @ 16 oz\/A is equivalent to rates of ~11 oz\/A of Ultra Blazer 2LC (acifluorfen) + ~11 oz\/A of Basagran\/Broadloom 4LC (bentazon). In my opinion, 11 oz\/A of Basagran\/Broadloom is sometimes<\/u><\/em> too much in this mix.  At this rate, Basagran\/Broadloom will reduce peanut leaf burn but could also reduce efficacy on some weeds in certain scenarios (i.e. larger Florida beggarweed and sicklepod). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use the term “Georgia” Storm when growers choose to make their own by tank-mixing Ultra Blazer 2LC @ 16 oz\/A and Basagran\/Broadloom 4LC @ 8 oz\/A (i.e. 2 separate jugs).  These application rates are more ideal for the general weed complex that growers have in most Georgia peanut fields.  Based upon some recent price estimates, “Georgia” Storm is ~$1.75\/A cheaper than the commercial Storm.  But, many growers prefer the convenience of only having to deal with 1 jug. Both Storm and “Georgia” Storm have performed very well in my 2024 research plots.  See below.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) I have had a a bunch of questions about the following tank-mixes in soybean.  When I was conducting my original on-farm tropical spiderwort research in the early 2000’s, Liberty-Link soybeans were not yet commercialized (2009) and dicamba-tolerant soybeans were a pipe dream. Please note that Basagran is not<\/u><\/em><\/strong> labeled for use in combination with Engenia according to the latest tank-mix information (https:\/\/www.engeniaherbicide.com\/tank-mix.html<\/a>).  However, Basagran is labeled for use with Xtendimax (https:\/\/www.xtendimaxapplicationrequirements.com\/#\/intro<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
