Peanut and cotton growers in Southeast and Southwest Alabama have the opportunity to visit weed management test plots in July. These tours give growers a look at which chemicals are working in the fields, and an opportunity to learn about new options for weed management. The peanut research is funded by growers check-off dollars through the Alabama Peanut Producers Association and National Peanut Board.
