To evaluate options for the residual control of Phalaris paradoxa in wheat.
Paradoxa grass (Phalaris paradoxa) is an important weed of winter crops, particularly in seasons when wet conditions occur in late autumn and early winter. Improved understanding of the potential for residual paradoxa grass management is needed due to increasing levels of Group 1 (A) and Group 2 (B) post-emergent herbicide resistance.
This project evaluated a range of residual herbicides with existing registrations for use in wheat. Three of the herbicides have paradoxa grass control claims when applied at planting in wheat: Sakura, TriflurX and Mateno Complete and Overwatch has a suppression claim.
