In the presence of glyphosate resistant ryegrass the majority responded a robust glyphosate rate + spike would be their preferred effective choice.
In this study glyphosate + spike is actually the least effective strategy! See below a few photos and a new predictive poll.👇
When should a no-till farmer reach for the plough?

Does your pre-em reach the soil, or stay stuck on the stubble?

Where other products can’t be handled below 15 degrees centigrade aquifer still flows at -20.
All Ag zones in WA in April have mean minimums at 7am below 15!
Aquifer. Cheaper. Better.

Yes, it’s a great product - have put it side by side against #Aquifer for 5 years & get independent agros get the same result - even at even half that rate & it’s much cheaper. Here’s a farmers example.
Know where your weeds are? Then you can variable rate your seed to match.

MTD rainfall. How's those parts in the GS that have constantly missed out - it's continuing.

This is an interesting story - yet again another farmer tried Aquifer on troublesome soils and decided this year to just put it over everything and was surprised and delighted to see where he ran out. #Aquifer is now going on everything.

1 L/ha of #Aquifer is doing a great job at #Mindarabin - here’s a really weak bit of crop where it has likely lifted the yield 5-fold. Really easy to see in the trial.

Don’t forget that #Aquifer flows even better than their 50:50 product which is 50% water - to make it flow below 15C. Aquifer still flows at -4C while SE14 turns to cold butter at -4C.

Indeed - data is important - too many companies seem to be afraid of real data. At 4Farmers we thrive on it.
The logic of comparing one product at 4L/ha against another one at 2 L/ha without showing response curves is deceptive. See the table below. More results coming soon.
