MSMA (monosodium methanearsonate) and DSMA (disodium methanearsonate) were applied to seedling orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) – alfalfa (Medicago sativa L. ‘WL-304′) and reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea L. ‘Ioreed’)-birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L. ‘Dawn’) mixtures before grasses were beyond the three-leaf stage. MSMA and DSMA controlled foxtails (Setaria spp.), large crabgrass [Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scop.] and fall panicum (Panicum dichotomiflorum Michx.), but were not effective on barnyardgrass [Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) Beauv.]. The addition of 2,4-DB [4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)butyric acid] or bromoxynil (3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzonitrile) to MSMA or DSMA increased broadleaf weed control over that obtained with MSMA or DSMA alone. The forage mixtures tolerated 2 to 3 kg/ha of MSMA or DSMA and increased in yield when weeds were controlled. Elemental arsenic found in the forage increased in forage as the rates of MSMA or DSMA increased. Eighty-six to 96% less arsenic was found in early-than in late-treated forage.

Successful weed control in small grains involves using good management practices in all phases of production. In Florida, winter weeds compete with small grains for moisture, nutrients, and light, with the greatest amount of competition occurring during the first six to eight weeks after planting. Weeds also cause harvest problems the following spring when the small grain is mature. This 4-page publication discusses crop competition, knowing your weeds, and chemical control. Written by J. A. Ferrell, G. E. MacDonald, and P. Devkota, and published by the UF/IFAS Agronomy Department, revised May 2020.

Successful weed control in peanuts involves use of good management practices in all phases of peanut production. This 11-page document lists herbicide products registered for use in Florida peanut production, their mode of actions group, application rate per acre and per season, and reentry interval. It also discusses the performance of these herbicides on several weeds under Florida conditions. Written by J. A. Ferrell, G. E. MacDonald, and P. Devkota, and published by the UF/IFAS Agronomy Department, revised May 2020.

This paper, as well as being a testimonial to the benefit the writer has received from the Grassland Association, shows how the knowledge of scientists has been used to increase lucerne seed yields by methods of growing resistant cultivars especially for seed production as opposed to growing for hay, silage or grazing. It shows how new cultivars can be multiplied quickly by growing two crops in one year, one in each hemisphere, by using low seeding rates, wide plant spacing and very good weed control. Increased flowering of the crop has been achieved by the use of boron and the choice of time of closing; better pollination has been achieved by the use of more efficient bees - two varieties of which have been imported from North America. Weed and insect pest control and the use of a desiccant at harvest are contributing to a four-fold increase in seed yield, which should double again soon,
