Wolseley pre-emergent herbicide efficacy locations
Aims

To demonstrate the effect of water rates and droplet size on the efficacy of pre-emergent herbicides, and to assess the impact of increased ground speed on the efficacy of Sakura in retained stubble systems in the medium rainfall zone of South-East of South Australia.

Key messages

The weather conditions in 2015 were extremely dry, and is thought that this may have impacted on the efficacy of the herbicides in this season.
