As harvest has, or is, drawing to a close summer weed control has become the main focus throughout southern NSW, considering the wet winter which 2016 brought us.
FarmLink is embarking upon a new project - Mitigation and Adaption to impacts of Climate Variability - which will focus on optimising summer weed control, preserving soil moisture and reducing impact of variability in growing season rainfall.
Under the project, a trial will soon be established in a stubble at Temora Agricultural Innovation Centre and involving typical on-farm treatments of spraying (single and multiple treatments) and grazing by sheep.
