Aims

To evaluate the tolerance of PBA Hurricane XT to post sowing pre-emergent and in-crop application timings of Group B herbicides in comparison with PBA Jumbo2.

Key messages
  •  All results need to be treated with caution, due the dry conditions, frosts and weed burden at the trial site. Similar to previous research PBA Hurricane XT showed tolerance to imidazolinone herbicides and improved tolerance compared with PBA Jumbo2 to sulfonylureas and sulfonamide herbicides. Flowering applications, as expected generally had the most significant reduction on grain yield. The improved weed control in several of the herbicide treatments meant that significant yield gains were commonly observed in the herbicide treatments.
