“This is probably the single most important product developed by the Weeds CRC over its 5.5 years of life so far. The Integrated Weed Management manual has involved years of work by Australian researchers and writers, and draws on 20 years of science and trials across the entire Australian cropping zone. It will be a key tool in the fight against the rise of herbicide resistance in our minimum-till, herbicide-dependent farming systems.” Dr Rachel McFadyen, CEO, CRC for Australian Weed Management.
