WeedSmart in HRZ – practical options for dealing with ryegrass
May 18, 2020
Author
Effective ryegrass control is becoming increasingly difficult in High Rainfall Zone farming systems.
This webinar is designed to help growers and agronomists explore farming system-based options to manage annual ryegrass populations in our cropping areas.
Grassroots Agronomy’s Greg Condon is a leading agronomist from Southern NSW, involved with the GRDC’s National WeedSmart project, which focuses on ‘the farmer calling the shots, not the weeds’. Greg will present options (not just chemical) which HRZ growers could integrate into their farming systems to help manage difficult-to-control weeds.
This webinar is brought to you by Southern Farming Systems and the Grains Research Development Corporation and presented by WeedSmart.
