The New Rules Of Wheat Weed Control - RDA 509
About this episode
The episode discusses effective strategies for wheat weed control with insights from Liberty Galvin of Oklahoma State University.
When wheat weeds start outrunning the old game plan, what should producers change first? In this episode of Red Dirt Agronomy, the crew sits down with Oklahoma State University’s Liberty Galvin at AgriFest in Enid to talk about what is actually working right now in wheat weed control. From pre-emergent herbicides and burndown programs to delayed planting and variety selection, this episode digs into the choices that can make herbicides work better instead of harder. The conversation also goes beyond spray recommendations and into weed biology, seedbanks, no-till challenges, competitive canopies, and even fire as a possible post-harvest tool. It is a practical, Oklahoma-focused discussion for producers trying to keep wheat clean, protect yield, and think more strategically about long-term weed management.
