While not yet passed into law, legislation approved by the German cabinet would ban glyphosate starting in 2024, according to Reuters.

With word that Austria will enact a ban on glyphosate, the bad news continues to mount for Bayer, the maker of Roundup, which contains the widely disputed chemical.

The weed control efficacy of many weak acid herbicides like glyphosate, 2,4-D, clethodium and glufosinate can be reduced by hard water because the positively-charged hard water cations bind to the negatively-charged herbicide molecules, reducing the herbicide's ability to be absorbed into the plant. Find out how adding AMS to the tank can alleviate this antagonism.

With spring planting right around the corner, some are thinking about the 'green bridge' and how long to wait before planting. Researchers from Washington State University consider whether there's a benefit to using paraquat instead of glyphosate for a quick burn-down.

Chemists and microbiologists at Tübingen University in Germany have discovered a sugar molecule that inhibits the growth of plants and microorganisms and appears to be harmless to human cells. Could this be an alternative to controversial glyphosate?

Andy Fordice, category leader for Enlist herbicides, talks about the recent launch of the Enlist weed control system for corn, including the new choline formulation of 2,4-D in Enlist One and Enlist Duo and the addition of Assure II as a tool against grasses and volunteer corn. Fordice also addresses how the Enlist soybean system gives no-tillers a tool to control tough weeds in-crop with 2,4-D, glyphosate and glufosinate.

It controls a spectrum of weeds including waterhemp, Palmer amaranth, pigweed, nightshade, lambsquarters, kochia, morningglories, smartweed, foxtail, barnyard grass and fall panicum.
