    Which Blackgrass control program....

    ...has given you 100% control? There are plenty of dirty fields out there, but also some very clean ones. Is that cultural as well as chemical? Interested to know others chemical inputs. Me; 1l/ha Liberator 2l/ha CC National F/b 0.4 Sunfire peri-em

    AB15 2 year legume

    Have 6 weeks from when you can destroy in 2nd year to hopefully drilling wheat - last year presumably like toast & you could bale up for bedding. In a wet year topping off a 2ft high mass could leave a thick mat & long stubble under the tyre tracks. What have people done

    Will aclonifen kill wheat shoots?

    Will aclonifen (Proclus, Bandur etc) kill 0.5mm emerged wheat shoots? I know it's pretty harsh as a chemical and the label states it's pre-emergence only but thought it was worth asking the question.
