Weedsmart Podcast

Welcome to the WeedSmart Podcast – this is our last podcast of 2021, so thank you for joining us! On this episode we're focusing on diverse crop rotations and dealing with resistance. We hope there’s some helpful tips for you to take away. CSIRO Chief Research Scientist for Farming Systems, Dr John Kirkegaard, joins us to tell us about current trial work he is leading looking at the impact of rotations on soil water, nitrogen, and profit in the face of variable climatic conditions.Wimmera Farmer Tim Rethus joins us to update us on how he's keeping his weed seed banks as low as possible. Tim was one of our farm hosts back in 2019 at Horsham WeedSmart Week. We’re going to find out what’s changed for Tim with his farming system and how he’s going to approach his summer weed control program. And last, but not least, Tim Frazer, who farms in Chinchilla Queensland, has a chat with us about how he’s managing Group A (Group 1) and Group M (Group 24) resistance.
