we’ve got a field of W barley that’s got a bad brome problem, I knew it was there in the wheat last year as it had a few bits that had been waterlogged and killed the crop but I’d no idea it would be as bad as it is the field hasn’t had brome in before 3 years ago and was permanent grass till...
We have a big issue with grass weeds and it’s getting worse. We are ok if we have a big spread of crops but it simply just doesn’t pay due to poor yields of spring crops such as spring linseed, spring barley, spring beans spring wheat. We’ve also tried grass but without our own livestock we get...
We have a problem on one area of land where meadow Brome is proving difficult to control. All chemical control in wheat, autumn and spring applied has been poor (not tried Avadex). This year oil seed rape is growing and things looked good through the winter following two graminicides and Kerb...
Got a smattering of quite tall groundsel in a field of wheat.is it worth doing anything or will anything do anything at this stage to take it out or not too worry about it
Used Spryte plenty in the past with Roundup but now I see it us different formula and only .025 spray conc'
and no mention of Glyphosate on label.
Anyone else using it with 360 and still Okay?
Thanks.
Annoyingly, I see that I've missed a strip in one of my wheat fields, which is nearly at T1, and a large patch of well grown groundsel is very noticeable.
What can I use to kill it, given that all the chemicals in the spray store don't say that they will control it? Presently I have Eagle...
Probably been discussed a million times but reviewing again to reduce overheads.
If I go down to 155 litres per ha instead of 200 I only need to visit each block of land once with my 2000 litre tank which is a big saving in time and clat factor.
Is 155 litres per ha adequate for fungicides etc...
We have some quite bad ryegrass can you tell me what is the best practice ie autumn cultivations and then cultivations pre spring drilling . Fields are in arable rotation and we want to continue with this . Thanks
What’s everybody using this year on blackgrass and ryegrass as a top up on winter wheats? And what about a late application on spring wheat in June time?
Our defy nozzles are worn out. We have generally been using them at 100l/ha for spring herbicides. What other nozzles/water rates are people using for Broadway star etc or should we stick with what we know?
Also do people agree with the Syngenta blurb that 100l/ha with Defry nozzles is...

Spring cereals switch demands herbicide strategy rethink
Farmers abandoning winter cereals and switching to spring wheat and barley will need to pay close attention to broadleaf weed control if they are to prevent significantly reduced yields.
For many arable farms, fieldwork taking place...
Winter wheat grassweed threat needs urgent attention
