There have been confirmed populations of Palmer amaranth in thirteen counties in the state of Indiana as of June 26, 2013.

These counties are no longer confined to just northwestern Indian as reported last fall and earlier this spring. We have recently confirmed populations in Adams and Henry counties on the eastern side of the state as well as Clay County in western Indiana.

If you suspect that you have found Palmer amaranth in your fields, please contact Bill Johnson (wgj@purdue.edu or 765-494-4656) or Travis Legleiter (tlegleit@purdue.edu or 765-496-2121).
