GRDC focus delivers gains in herbicide resistance management
April 1, 2024
Analysis has shown that GRDC’s investment in understanding and combatting herbicide resistance over the past 25 years has returned $3.50 for every dollar invested.
The 2021 Grower Practice Survey showed that growers are adopting alternative methods to control weed seedbanks, including crop-topping, chaff carts, chaff lining, seed impact mills, and spraying under windrows.
Recognising the importance of disseminating the outcomes and practical implications of research undertaken by its research partners, GRDC, along with other industry partners, contributes to WeedSmart – an industry-led initiative to enhance on-farm practices and promote the long-term sustainability of herbicide use.
