We’re very fortunate to have such high calibre researchers @kildea1 @FionaBHutton helping farmers to make informed decisions on variety selection.

[Steven Kildea @kildea1]

Given the recent discussions on Cougar based resistance and septoria happy to present some of our recent findings that hopefully clarify some of what we are observing in fields @FionaBHutton @mladencucak https://t.co/vWy3mSg8g2

[Irish Farmers Journal @farmersjournal]

The @farmersjournal has launched an awareness campaign around the highly invasive weed, blackgrass. The weed is spreading rapidly across Ireland, and many farmers do not know how to recognise it. There is more information at https://t.co/JJS5Y0hdYc #stopthespread #blackgrass21

Big league aphid control. @BioDataCentre #DragonflyIreland #ipm

[Ciaran Collins @Ciaran_Coll]

@LouisMcAuley @BioDataCentre Dragonfly Louis, not an every day occurrence in wheat. Hoping @BioDataCentre can fill in the blanks.

[Teagasc Tillage Team @TeagascCrops]

Blackgrass appearing in fields with no previous incidence again this year. Adopt a zero tolerance approach. Rouge if possible or else glyphosate. Seek professional advice to implement an IPM plan. Solution is not in the spray store. #blackgrass #IPM

@childs_stuart @Seamienolan They are enthusiastic anyway! I wonder do they have the green cert??
