ROUNDUP READY® ALFALFA FOR BETTER WEED CONTROL

Getting your alfalfa stand up and running can be a challenge, especially when broadleaf weeds and grasses gain a foothold in your newly-seeded fields. According to Penn State University Extension, the most critical time for weed management in alfalfa is during stand establishment.

NEXGROW brand dormant and non-dormant alfalfa varieties with the Roundup Ready® trait are the answer to early weed problems. To maximize the benefits of Roundup Ready alfalfa, apply glyphosate to seedling alfalfa at the 3 to 5 trifoliate stage, when weeds are less than 4 inches tall.

If weed problems persist, an additional application of glyphosate can be made up to 5 days prior to harvest.
