Project Justification• During the 2012 growing season there has been several
complains on kochia control failure with glyphosate
• Glyphosate resistant kochia has not yet been confirmed
in Montana, but it has been observed in Kansas, South
Dakota, North Dakota, Nebraska, and Alberta (Canada)
• At MSU, we are currently screening kochia seedlings to
confirm or reject the presence of glyphosate resistant
kochia

Glyphosate Resistance
• Worldwide: 24 species
• USA: 14 species
• Multiple resistance
– 2 Mode of Actions: 17 biotypes
– 3 Mode of Actions: 5 biotypes
– 4 Mode of Actions: 1 biotype

Why is Kochia Such a Problem?
• Very competitive
• Extremely drought tolerate
• Late maturing
• Genetically diverse
• Out-crosses
• Over 50,000 seeds/plant
• Tumbleweed
• Herbicide resistancePNW Weed Management Handbook

Objectives• Evaluate soil active herbicides for kochia control
in a fallow period in anticipation of glyphosate
resistant kochia biotype occurrence in MT
• Achieve control of kochia seedling through mid-
July
– Kochia seed germination and seedling
establishment after mid-July is unlikely due to dry
upper soil profile

Herbicide Selection Criteria
• Early application (spring burndown)
• Soil residual activity
• Treatments:
– Gramoxone Super (burndown) & Atrazine, Sencor, Corvus (residual)
– Valor, Spartan, and Spartan Charge (burndown & residual)
– Glyphosate
• Percentage control evaluated 45 & 73 days after application
• Winter wheat: seeded in fall of 2012 to evaluate fallow
treatment effects on the crop

Gramoxone (paraquat)
• Restricted use pesticide
• Acute toxicity
– Fatal if inhaled. May be fatal is swallowed. Harmful in
contact with skin.
• Worldwide: 25 resistant species (43 resistant
biotypes) in 13 countries
• Australia: multiple resistance with glyphosate

In Summary• Several treatments provided kochia control through
mid summer without the use of glyphosate
• Glyphosate will still be required to control volunteer
cereal grain, weedy grasses and other broadleaf
weed species as well as susceptible kochia
• Extra cost
• Health and environmental issues
