Custom Content
Content marketing is a proven, powerful marketing tool. Companies understand that content can help them attract the attention and earn the trust of prospective customers. Producing enough quality content, however, can challenge many marketers. This leads them to contract with freelance writers or custom content developers – like Meister Custom – to produce content for them. View some of our content online at meistermedia.com/meister-custom-portfolio.
Custom Videos
Online video’s popularity is exploding with some experts projecting that 80% of all internet traffic will be for video by 2019. This trend extends to B2B marketing as well. The Content Marketing Institute reports that roughly 75% of all B2B marketers include video in their marketing campaigns. But do you have the resources to produce your own video? Or even the marketing strategy around the video content? This is where Meister Custom comes in. Let our experienced staff help produce a custom video for your marketing needs.
Custom Website Development
As our audiences spend more time online for work, companies looking to sell to them are placing greater focus on how effectively their websites attract and serve prospective customers.

CROP DIVERSIFICATION:
FINDING THE RIGHT MIX FOR YOUR FARM
LandSouth_Insert#2_FINAL.indd 1 3/18/16 12:20 PM
WHITEPAPERS
Greg Elmore, Technology Development Manager at Monsanto, agrees. “You really want that one-two punch of a residual followed by a post-emergence product,” he says. “Depending on the weed species, applying a residual in the post-emergence time frame can really help keep the weeds out before the crop canopies over. This is really important in situations with weeds like Palmer pigweed or waterhemp that produce many seeds and germinate over a long time period.” Residuals Are Key to Managing Weed Resistance
Elmore says weed resistance is a big problem that presents a
significant challenge for today’s growers,
and incorporating residuals into
weed control programs is a big part of the solution—both currently and into the future.
“We’re seeing more and more
populations of weeds that have
multiple resistance to ALS chemistry, glyphosate and
now PPO herbicides,” Elmore says. “That means the tools growers have to control or manage weeds in their fields are reduced significantly. It’s no
small challenge, and it represents a lot of dollars and management strategies to overcome it. There are two parts to the problem—managing the already-existing resistant weed populations and avoiding the creation of any more that are resistant to either chemistries we know about or future ones.”
Tank Mix Multiple Sites of Action for One-Two Punch
Tank-mixing herbicides with multiple effective sites of action in one application is a key element of managing weed resistance. Elmore and Riley both say data shows tank-mixing multiple effective sites of action together is more likely to provide effective weed control and protect the individual chemistries than rotating them sequentially.
“You should never use one site of action alone, and if you did, thinking you would rotate with a different chemistry the following year, the data demonstrates you are likely to get resistance much faster that way than by tank-mixing two effective sites of action and using them every year,” Elmore says. “In addition, it can be a good idea to add a residual herbicide to the post-emergence application. This will help provide additional control of emerging weeds until the crop canopy closes.”
“It’s important to approach weed control and resistance management proactively,” Riley says. “Have a
Pre-emergence, or residual, herbicides are at the core of most successful weed control programs. Because they provide long-lasting control of many problem
weeds, residuals help growers stay ahead of the game, reducing the pressure for post-emergence weed control, slowing development of herbicide resistance and protecting yield by preventing weed competition with newly emerging crops.
“The use of residuals, especially at the time of planting, is really important in an overall
weed management strategy,” says Eric Riley, Technology Development Manager for Selective Chemistries in North America for Monsanto. “It’s a two-pronged approach. Residuals provide protection during crop establishment when weeds could really take over. In addition, tank-mixing a post-emergence herbicide with a residual and putting it down in the early post-emergence period reduces selection pressure on those post herbicides. Overlapping the residuals helps with both weed control and resistance management.”
STAY AHEAD OF PROBLEM WEEDS WITH RESIDUAL HERBICIDES
• Include multiple sites of action in one application: Research shows this practice is more effective at controlling weeds and preventing development of resistance than using single sites of action and rotating them.
• Crop rotation: In certain crops you can’t use certain chemistries. By using crop ro-tation you allow yourself to use a different set of sites of action that may have dam-aged the previous year’s crop. This practice helps to get multiple sites of action down on that acre over time.
• Apply full usage rates: Using the full rate is the most effective way to get a clean field. Cutting rates can lead to weed survivors, which can eventually lead to resistant weed populations.
• Timely post-emergence applications: Spray when weeds are small to achieve good coverage and complete kill.
• Clean up field edges: Weeds that survive at the edge of the field could, in time, become resistant to certain chemistries — eventually leading to problems within the field.
• Good sanitation: Avoid spreading weed seeds — especially from herbicide-resistant populations — into other fields by thoroughly cleaning equipment.
• Know your weeds: By knowing what weeds are in the field and how they have responded to certain chemistries, growers can proactively develop a long-term management strategy.
• Scout after herbicide application: Evaluate the efficacy of the application and follow up with any problems while they are still manageable.
