To determine the most effective herbicide for use on statice.
Key messages
Velocity®, Igran®, Precept® and Lexone® provided the most effective statice control in barley.
The use of, or addition, of Group G herbicides failed to improve control.
Group C herbicides had varied results. Products containing terbutryn and metribuzin achieved a high level of control, but products containing diuron and bromoxynil did not.
