With spring around the corner my attention is now on getting my grass re-seeds up together when it eventually warms up. I have new PRG leys, with no clover, which need a herbicide to take out dock seedlings, chickweed etc. I'd like to overseed these leys with clover at some point this season...

As part of Farm Compare, it has a basic lookup for crop protection products to allow you to lookup products and find equivalents. We get this data from the HSE. What I didn't realise is how fast this data changes. over the past 17 months we have been monitoring the list, there have been 346...

Got some thistles to moider, late in the year I know. Four years ago we used Transfer mid Oct to try to tidy up some thistles in perm pasture. Much to my surprise it did a cracking job, no thistles since. The thistles I want to kill are mature but not seeded. Am I right in thinking spraying now...

Take advantage of autumn conditions to reseed pastures Farmers who missed out reseeding fields in this year’s dry spring can still upgrade their pastures now by carrying out an autumn reseed. “New swards that mainly consist of perennial ryegrass can produce more than 3t DM/ha more grass...

Follow the label when using Forefront T Farmers using Forefront T to control perennial weeds such as docks, thistles, ragwort and nettles to turn infested pasture back into productive grassland, must remember treatment comes with certain obligations. “Forefront T must only be used in fields...

Best way to clean a field up of the bloody things? Was thinking of drilling with brassicas after roundup 1st year.Would following that be best with something like tornado for a few years so i could spray with dockstar, then a full reseed in 2 years?

What rate to mix the two together for best results?

We silaged a field 3wks ago that was bad with docks. The docks are coming back nicely now so was going to spray them, was thinking of using Minstral Would i be best to spray at 1ltr/ha and spray again after 2nd cut or go with a stronger rate and spray them once

Unusually cold this week. Another frost this morning, so at least 3 this week now. Have T2 on wheat to do, T1 on SB and some beans to tidy up. All mixes containing a herbicide. Anybody not applying with such low night temps?

I can use 24D as part of a mix with roundup in Kyleo as a full knockdown of weeds. But when it comes to spring crops I'm finding myself ladling on expensive Zypar because I'm now scared of growing direct drill osr with an su What am I missing here, What is it that those old fashioned contact...

We pulled a lot of ragwort out of a pasture last year. It’s been sprayed for docks this year and there is still a lot of ragwort in patches . How long is it poisonous for? Cattle will be kept out for 7 days anyway but should they be kept out longer?

As per the title really. One for the agronomy geeks! @Ugo79 @richard hammond @Bogweevil @BenB - I've has a discussion with Nick. I have a couple of ex AB9 winter seed plots now in spring barley. Despite a good dose of glyphosate pre drilling, the chicory is coming back and will soon be...

Hi, Never planted any cover/catch crops before, but I have 20acres of Clay-Loam currently bare which will be going into WW this autumn. I'm looking to increase organic matter and for good rooting to help carry tractors and minimise compaction later in the year. I will be spreading poultry...

I have a cracking field of ww, (a result in itself) after sunflowers. It is at the stage of just starting to flower (a worry that we have non stop rain after 2012) and now, the volunteer sunflowers are getting to worrying numbers. Is there anything that can be applied this late? Tia Mark

Grazon Pro ??

Sprayed Last year , seem to be about 30% returned , is that likley to be the old ones or seedlings ? So back to, "whats best to use"

Sowed a new ley back in September. Sheep grazed it off tidy, moved them off and gave it 180kg/ha of n and it's tillering out nicely. But.. So what's best to kill young docks and thistles? Looking to get the cows grazing it in the next two weeks..

Got our maize drilled last week, very early I know but it's done well the last 2 years drill in a similar window. Blue plastic, with a selection of pioneer varieties.

Saw this in costco. Didnt know roundup could be had in different active ingredients.
