[QUOTE="Digger73, post: 6593024, member: 46090"] Yes we have used diquat this year. I think some trial work has been done with other products but don't know how they have worked out. Roundup hasn't been used up to now to avoid any potential residue issues and i personally think it would be a backward step to start using it now especially with the chance we could lose it in the near future and still be left looking for something else. The soya does ripen very well naturally the dessicant is more for dealing with weeds at harvest which can be an issue on blackland with crops with open canopys like peas/beans etc. I have even thought of growing soya on wide rows and inter row hoeing right up to harvest knowing how tough the pods are.
