To evaluate residual control of tall fleabane in fallow.
In recent years, tall fleabane has become a major fallow problem weed due to the lack of effective knockdown herbicide options. Knockdown herbicide programs suitable for flaxleaf fleabane generally have poor efficacy on tall fleabane. This trial was conducted to screen a range of herbicides, with existing or planned fallow registrations, for potential to assist in the management of tall fleabane. Previous trials (initiated in February and August 2022) failed to provide clear efficacy results with negligible emergence of tall fleabane at both sites.
