To evaluate the crop safety and efficacy on annual ryegrass of soil-incorporated pre-emergent herbicides in dry and wet sowing conditions.
Sowing into moist soil improved crop emergence compared to dry soil, but did not increase yield.
Under low and variable ryegrass pressure, herbicides did not reduce overall ryegrass density, but did reduce inter-row ryegrass density.
There was no difference in efficacy between the 1.5L/ha and 3.0L/ha of TriflurX®.
