Improving management of Group A resistant barley grass in current farming systems (S/UA121)

START

June 1, 2021

FINISH

June 30, 2024

Summary

Control of resistant barley grass is to be investigated on upper Eyre Peninsula through 1) impact of new herbicides and management options in cereals and break crops, 2) understanding the seed dormancy and germination patterns of barley grass in that region, and 3) identifying soil constraints that impact on herbicide efficacy by monitoring five farmer paddocks per season.
