The Tillage Edge

Over recent weeks, most farmers have had the opportunity to plant winter crops, with many crops well emerged.

Ciaran Collins, a tillage specialist, and Vijaya Bhaskar, a weed researcher from Teagasc, join the Tillage Edge podcast this week to discuss the best options for effective pre and post emergence weed control in winter cereals.

Ciaran emphasises that controlling grass weeds through pre-emergence or early post-emergence is essential for effective management.

Vijaya provides an update on ALS herbicide-resistant annual meadow grass detected across the country, noting that pre-emergence herbicides are effective on these resistant populations.
