Italian Ryegrass trials site coming together ADAS Boxworth WeedWiseUK It's so important that we develop and refine approaches to IWM in this weed as it continues to increase as a significant weed issue on-farm in the UK. and yes that is a lot of plots isn't it!


Another not great pic of ADAS Boxworth @weedwise black-grass site. So much to talk about; Stacking cultural & herbicide control. New herbicide options. Maximising weed suppression across drill dates/companion crops. Optimum timings & approaches to sequencing herbicides +++more
