Purdue Weed Scientists Bill Johnson and Glenn Nice have developed an online tool to help producers make herbicide decisions. The tool is called Indiana Select-a-Herb.
In the online program you will select your crop and weeds you want to control. The program will then find herbicides labeled for use with that crop and against those weeds and rated by the manufacturer with 70% or better control rating.
A non-crop option is also available for side ditches, fencerows, CRP, permanent pasture, etc.
This will be a very useful tool. I've played with it a little bit and I think it will be helpful. Keep in mind though, The Label is The Law. Use this as a starting point but always check the label for additional information. The site doesn't include everything so issues such as residual pesticide interactions or tank mixes, etc., aren't addressed.
