Black grass sprays in forage maize
What chemical options are people using to control black grass in forage maize? Last year I used PDM pre-em and a nicosulfuron post em but poor results. Would dual gold or wing -P alongside PDM be a more robust pre-em option for black grass ? I know they are not cheap!! thanks -
Grain maize questions
Just thinking aloud here.. Getting on for spring barley,maybe better off with something else. Thinking a couple of ton of grain maize off the 10a might be better. Would be all fed in house to beef. Can sow it with the combi, Have small conventional combine header to cut it(if it will do it)...- davidroberts30

Glyphosate adjuvants
Have been wondering recently if there is any scope to reduce glyphosate rates and add wetter/penetrant type products to improve efficacy.
