NGN Water quality impacts on herbicide efficacy
Tender ID: 582071
Tender Details
Tender Description
The quality of water used in spraying operations is essential for achieving optimal weed control in cropping systems. Reduced herbicide efficacy can significantly contribute to herbicide resistance in weeds and negatively affect profitability if spray applications do not effectively reduce the weed population.
Enhancing growers' understanding of water quality test results will enable them to make more informed weed management decisions, which could involve either improving water quality or making appropriate herbicide choices.
This issue has been raised by growers at Northern Region NGN forums in 2023 and 2024 and is a matter of concern.
Offer period
Offers will remain open for acceptance by the GRDC for a period of 6 months after the Closing Time.
