Understanding pre-emergent herbicides workshop (Wagga Wagga)

8:00am - 12:00pm
The continual rise in situations where post-emergent herbicides are failing due to the
development of resistance is forcing a re-think of weed control strategies. As advisers
look towards more integrated solutions, the use of pre-emergent herbicides has been on
the increase.
In order to achieve predictable performance from pre-emergent herbicides, advisers
need to understand the properties of the pre-emergent herbicide and how this interacts
with the soil and the environment. Frequently this information is difficult to find from
traditional product information or herbicide labels. These workshops look to arm advisers
with the information required for decision making aimed at maximising the performance of
their chosen pre-emergent herbicide.
