OKLAHOMA ALFALFA PRODUCTION CALENDAR

Weed Control

  • August Weed Control in Established Stands:  Grazing weedy alfalfa in July and August should be considered rather than trying to control weeds with a herbicide.
      
  • August Weed Control in Seedling Stands:  Major weed problem weeds in fall-planted alfalfa are wheat, cheat, and mustards. Preplant incorporated use of Eptam® or postemergence herbicides such as Butyrac® 200 for broadleaf weeds and Poast Plus® for weedy grasses after weeds are emerged and still small (less than 4 inches) are the best options.
