Dr. Jose Carvalho shared with us results from his research program at the Maricopa Agricultural Center including evaluations with the “King of Weeds” Palmer amaranth.
Additionally, some information was presented on Prefar Chemigation as well as the effect on spinach plantings if planted too early. The trials were done this season at the Yuma Agricultural Center and The Arizona Cooperative Extension will make videos of these presentations available soon.
