A study was conducted at the Dean Lee Research Station in Alexandria, Louisiana to evaluate possible antagonistic properties of Zinc on control of weeds when tank-mixed with glyphosate in cotton. Three formulations of glyphosate (Glyphomax Plus, Roundup Weathermax, Touchdown Total) were applied alone and co-applied with two formulations of Zinc (RSA 7% and Trafix 10%). Visual weed control ratings were estimated at 7, 14, and 28 days after treatment (DAT). Weeds evaluated in this study include morningglory, hophornbeam copperleaf, palmer amaranth, barnyardgrass, and browntop millet. These weeds are among the most common and some of the most troublesome weeds in Central Louisiana. Data analysis is still being conducted at this time, but a definite presence of antagonism seems to be evident in this study.
