On this edition of the podcast, we’re looking at how to best use residual herbicides after harvest.
We hear from ICAN’s Mark Congreve on this.
Northern Grower Alliance CEO Richard Daniel also joins us to talk about summer weed control how using an optical spray can maximise your use of residual herbicides.
We also hear from Frankland based Agronomist, Tim Trezise, who had a query on the challenges around crop topping weeds at the dough stage and whether you still get good control by using higher rates of paraquat or glyphosate. Pete answers this question in the podcast!
