In the next few months I will be screening pastures species (hopefully around 30-40 species) with (many) herbicides modes of action (from the serradellas to clovers, vetch to triticale, cereal rye, oats, cocksfoot, kikuiu etc.). 👇🧵

Adding a pasture phase to a cropping rotation can take weeds by surprise 🌱
A one-in-three-year break away from wheat, using serradella, was enough to reduce the ryegrass seed bank by over 50% in trials run by @Mike_AHRI, @ykhalil2013 and @robertexrl.
