Have you listened to our latest podcast yet with Dr Rick Llewellyn?
Rick is leading the @WeedAWM1 Area Wide Management project, funded by @theGRDC@CottonResearch
Rick explains how this project will increase our understanding of weed issues 🌱https://t.co/9s12iThvq9
To help determine if there is demand for additional Feathertop Rhodes grass workshops, growers, agronomists and advisers are asked to register their interest. https://t.co/qXnNbbhO3i
@JosLuisSTG1 @MSF_Mildura @CottonResearch@theGRDC @DeptAgNews "Low rainfall" zone can be defined by an average annual rainfall of 250–350 mm. e.g. see https://t.co/bSUgIFniDy
Michael Moodie is providing an overview of herbicide resistance trials currently being carried out as part of the Area Wide Weed Management project. @WeedAWM1@CeresImaging
Key takeaway: highly likely that fleabane is resistant to Gly. 50% of fleabane was resistant in recent study. "Weeds much easier to kill while they are small" says Chris Preston @UniofAdelaide@WeedAWM1@CottonResearch@theGRDC@Moodie_ag

It is well recognised that weeds, seeds & herbicide resistance genes have the potential to move across farm boundaries + between different land uses. WATCH this video explaining the concept of area wide management for cropping systems weeds: https://t.co/0PD2O5lj7G #MSFProjects
In each of these tubes is 300 individual weeds from the @WeedAWM1 season 1 genetic sampling, each individually tagged with a unique DNA index for genotyping by sequencing. Sent off on Friday - looking forward to getting the results soon! @IRECNSW @MSF_Mildura @MillmerranL
MSF is thrilled to be a partner in the Area Wide Management (AWM) project. The focus of this project is investigating the agronomic, economic & social benefits of tackling the problem of mobile weeds on a broader + cross-industry scale. https://t.co/dA96bk95Zu #AWM
