There is a weed on my farm than resemble sedges. their roots have the same ant-like smell, the problem is, my cir are between 3 - 4 weeks old when they started germinating, so I sprayed in-between the rows with glyphosate, now dey died very well, abt two weeks in, another set germinates, now it got me thinking, I've got to get my hands on pre emergence herbicides, if they are compatible with glyphosate will be a bonus

pre emerg. herbicides mainly deal with germination weed seeds, not already germinated weeds. Why not use paraquat? It will be safer.

if may farm was filled with only grasses, contact herbicides will be an option, this will only reactivate the now dormant broadleafs(they bear suckers) glyphosphate has given them pause already, maybe athrazine will help me.

I havent used it b4

I just planted soybean on 2 acres of land. I'm thinking of spraying pesticides and herbicides on the farm. I noticed there are lots of grasshoppers on the farm weeds have started growing because the planting was done after the ridges have been made several weeks ago. Though we did some manual weeding before planting, but I'm making plans to spray both herbicides and pesticides already.
What are the recommendations and suggestions for these herbicides and pesticides? Which particular brand is most effective? What is the quantity required? Thanks
