WeedSmart 2025-26 Webinar Series

Webinar 2: The Good, the Bad & the Ugly: Increasing use of residual herbicides in the Northern region farming system

January 15, 2026, 1pm AEST

Looking for better mix and rotate solutions in the Northern farming systems? The use of residuals and group 14s can provide benefits but also requires care to enable cropping options at the start of each seeding phase.

Join our WeedSmart Northern region extension agronomist, Paul McIntosh and guest agronomist Tony Lockrey, (AMPS Moree) to work through some of the good and great uses of residuals, what could be bad, and how it can turn ugly without good advice and attention to label!

Tune in to listen to a Northern harvest wrap up & discussion on how summer seeding options play out for effective weed control, flexible crop rotations depending on the season, and interpreting the guidelines around Group 14s and their residual nature.
