Herbicide resistance in plants has escalated since the 1980s. Weeds now resist 168 different herbicides and 21 of the 31 known modes of action. This resistance can reduce crop yields by 50% or more. In extreme cases, it can devastate entire fields and even force farmers out of business. The situation mirrors the challenge of antibiotic resistance. To combat this, agriculture must adopt diverse weed control practices, though implementing such changes is challenging.

12h Neat niche resistant strategy – available now. Consider this on paddocks where you have known #glyphosate resistant #ryegrass.
#Glufosinate at 2 L/ha plus diuron, grp14’s, SU’s & AmSul on two leaf ryegrass in the morning will get most of them & that will be a great help.

Mar 29 After 20 years of testing, the results are mixed. Long-chain peptides and plant extracts might be the real key to reducing herbicide stress and boosting ROI. Are you using the best approach?

2h With #SugarBeet drilling fast approaching, weeds can slash yields by 10%! Adding a high-strength MSO adjuvant like Phase II
BBRO trials prove the benefits—don’t let weeds win!

10h @agrobaz
were you spraying a residual chemistry at full rate along with the precision contact herbicide? In my opinion, the decreasing cost of contact herbicides vs, the necessity to spray a full rate of residual is reducing the ROI of the system. Would be curious of your tankmix
