Spray seed knockdown mixtures following Roundup Ready canola locations
Aims

The objective of this trial was to evaluate the knockdown efficiency of Spray.Seed with and without common tank mix ‘spikes’, at various rates, on the control of grass and broadleaf weeds including Roundup Ready canola volunteers.

Key messages

Higher rates of Spray.Seed provided significantly greater levels of final ryegrass, radish, canola and lupin control.
