Join us as we discuss the latest field ready research on managing problem summer grass weeds
Leading discussion will be ICAN senior consultants Mark Congreve and John Cameron. Summer grasses often drive decision making in the fallow and summer crops. The GRDC NGN project 'Control strategies for key problem weeds in northern NSW' has been developing and evaluating management advice for these widespread problems. This workshop discussion session compiles latest research into field-ready management advice for growers and agronomists.
Topics include
- Understanding the biology and ecology that drive these problem species
- Integrating multiple tactics into a cohesive strategy, including pre-and post-emergent herbicides and camera sprayers
- Optimising the performance of different herbicides and tank mixes
- Implementing strategies in fallow and summer crops
- Unmet research needs that growers and advisers would like to see addressed
