To study the interaction between herbicides and Zn nutrition of wheat.
Key messages
Chlorsulfuron (e.g. Glean) was found to reduce wheat yields at some sites.
No Zinc (Zn) responses were recorded at any of the sites.
Phosphorus (P) response was closely correlated with soil P levels.
Increasing Zn and P nutrition did not reduce the Chlorsulfuron effect.
