Fleabane control video

Neville Gould - Thursday, December 08, 2011
After a very well attended paddock walk in early December looking at our fleabane trial, with 60 farmers and advisors from all over the State, I put together some of the key lessons I have learnt regarding fleabane in fallows during my time as Hillston DA, incorporating a number of years of trials and commercial experieneces.

Thanks to the agronomists and herbicide companies who have supported this work. I trust you will find the short you tube video informative and perhaps even a little entertaining!

People have been interested in this trial report. Also attached are a few interesting pictures from Chris Minehan (RMSAG Wagga) which highlight the importance of understanding the difference in age and size of fleabane plants this year.
