Glyphosate resistant Palmer Amaranth was confirmed in Macon County, Georgia in 2005.  Residual herbicides are going to play a key role in managing this potentially devastating pest.  Field experiments were conducted in Georgia and North Carolina to determine the response of glyphosate resistant Palmer Amaranth to 13 residual herbicides.
