What JDseller said brings back memories. We also had bottoms around here that could not be farmed because of it. The reasons I got my place cheap was it is bottom land and it was infested with Johnson grass. Back then you had about one herbicide choice, I think it was Eradicane?? you sprayed it and disked (or maybe it was disk and then spray?) and hoped it killed most of it but no matter it came back anyway. The old guy that owned the place gave up row cropping it and put it in hay for a few years and actually had it pretty well killed. But we had a major flood that put most of the place under water and brought seeds with it. He gave up and put it up for sale. Lucky break for me was I had a bit of cash in the bank, enough to make a down payment to buy it and they came out with Round up. We still did a lot of hand weeding for years cutting individual plants as they came back. Have not seen Johnson grass for years but now it is on to the next resistant weed,, Mares tail
