Glyphosate-resistant annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum) control with alternative, non-conventional herbicides: Comparison of spray volumes – Tamworth (glasshouse) 2018

Abstract

Key findings • The optimum spray volume of Non-Tox® herbicide needs to be more than 800 L/ha. • There is limited potential to use this alternative, non-conventional herbicide as a spot treatment option for isolated patchy grass weeds such as annual ryegrass. • This herbicide desiccates the weed and is likely to work more effectively on smaller broad leaf weeds. A follow-up experiment will investigate how growth rate affects the herbicide’s efficacy.
