Blackgrass Spraying in Winter Wheat - Don't miss the boat!

During this period, active growth returned to the blackgrass, presenting an opportunity for spraying with travelling conditions in the areas where blackgrass is a problem being exceptionally good for this time of year.  The door on this opportunity has closed but looks likely to open again during the middle of the month with above average temperatures expected.

 

Where grassweeds have yet to be sprayed with GF-2070 then treating in these mild spells during January and February onto smaller weeds will result in significantly higher levels of control compared to applications in March and April onto bigger weeds.

 

Remember every time it turns mild your blackgrass plants grow bigger, becoming increasingly more difficult to control.
