We haven't seen this type of forecast for a while! A long awaited dry spell ahead will hopefully give some a chance to pursue incomplete weed control. Though be careful with frosts. @UPL_UK
Early drilling & mild weather means crops are at risk from both #blackgrass & #BYDV. If Tsum is reached an insecticide appliction should be considered with a post emergence herbicide. Top-ups should contain an alternative MOA such as ethofumesate to best manage resistance.#XERTON
Companion crop of Berseem Clover doing its job in this lovely field of OSR in Sussex. Clethodim applied 2 weeks ago so now time to get the Clearfield herbicides on. @AgrovistaUK#SoilHealth#OSR
With high #WBF egg counts recorded at some @ADASGroup monitoring sites in East Anglia, Signal 300EC will be a key tool in managing this pest. Don't forget second wheats following gappy wheat crops can also be under threat. #OpenAg
SIGNAL 300 ES is a seed treatment insecticide offering a zone of protection against soil borne pests such as WBF, wireworm and frit fly in wheat and barley. Always follow label advice, seed depth and #AHDB guidance on thresholds. @UPLTechnical@seedtreatrambo
Team Technical are proud to support #BackBritishFarming Day. We think British farmers do an amazing job and we are privileged to be part of this exciting industry!
Team Technicalβs herbicide lead @robadamson1 was in some rather large OSR yesterday. At 5 true leaves already, #CenturionMax should be applied sooner rather than later to early drilled and rapidly growing crops like these. Remember to follow the #clethodimstewardship.
Really interesting work from @AHDB_Potatoes showing how important #FAZOR is as the starting point for sprout control. Orange oil is an exciting in-store option Team Technical are working on as our post CIPC strategy, currently registered in Ireland. #OpenAg

We've had reports of grain contamination with #ergot, favoured by cool, wet conditions at flowering of later sown crops. If home-saving seed, ensure it's treated with an azole seed treatment such as #RanconaiMIX to aid control by reducing germination of sclerotia after drilling.
Rain is flushing cereal volunteers in established OSR crops. Don't to forget these should be controlled prior to an application of #CenturionMax in order to optimise blackgrass control. Panarex or Rango is the perfect choice to stop these cereal volunteers from competing. #OpenAg
We've recently registered ARGOS in Ireland. For details on this new in-store sprout surpressant, Team Technical's @pendergrast_don is on hand to answer all your questions about this new technology. #OpenAg
ARGOS is een effectieve en krachtige kiemremmer in aardappelen op basis van sinaasappelolie. De brochure met technische informatie en resultaten van ARGOS is nu beschikbaar. Klik hiervoor op de deze link:

With rain stopping play for many, the decision to drill oilseed rape is playing on many peoples mind. Team Technical's @robadamson1 discusses the challenge we face and how to give the crop a fighting chance using biolologicals.

As drills emerge from the shed we have to ensure OSR is given a fighting chance. Biological seed treatments can help, SYLAS-ST speeds up germination &improves water mangement in the plant. Giving some reassurance if moisture levels are variable. @DaltonSeeds@OpenfieldTM#OpenAg
Considering variety choice and ordering seed? With many crops this autumn being drilled after fallow, there is likely increased pressue from soil borne pests such as wireworm & bulb fly. Whatever the variety, ensure it is treated approppriately. #Signal300#ZoneOfProtection
Protecting beneficials by using biological insecticides such as Carpovirusine, and providing insect refuges such as these, is a perfect way to implement IPM in orchards. #OpenAg@AgrovistaFruit
With hot weather forecast this week, don't forget that maleic hydrazide relies on open stomata to be most effective and can cause damage when applied at temperatures above 26 degrees. Choose your Fazor spray timings wisely to get the best out of the active. #FazeOutTheCompetition
