The Effect of Pre Emergent Herbicides on Broad Bean Yield at Conmurra. locations
Aims

To evaluate the effect of existing and new chemistry on yield in broad beans

Key messages

• Weed control in Broad beans in the SE of South Australia requires increased research to adapt new strategies to minimise resistance to herbicide technologies.
• Conmurra Trial Site was extremely clean in 2013 with lesser loosestrife being the only major weed observed.
• All treatments except Triflur X, Terbyne PSPE, F8142/6 and Magister significantly increased yield when compared to the untreated control.
• Triflur X, Terbyne PSPE, F8142/6 and Magister were not significantly different in yield when compared to the untreated control.
• Ensure to read and follow herbicide label before the application.
• Trial Photos Can Be found on the Mackillop Website.
