Wild Oat Management in Chickpeas: The Impact of Pre-Emergent Herbicides and Soil Levelling locations
Aims

To evaluate the combined impact of residual herbicides and soil levelling on wild oat efficacy.

Key messages

In this trial, the experimental product, TriflurX alone, Avadex Xtra + TriflurX, Outlook, Rifle and Ultro all resulted in significant crop safety issues, particularly when the soil was levelled after application. The weed counts were too low to provide good levels of confidence.
