Step 5
Spray out annual ryegrass with glyphosate + insecticide in spring
- Spray out annual ryegrass with glyphosate + insecticide in spring to ensure the summer crop is planted into good moisture.
- This will provide excellent control of annual and perennial weeds and conserve moisture for the following brassica crop.
- Controlling all grasses in the paddock eliminates any wild type endophyte present
- Apply an insecticide with glyphosate if direct drilling, this will lower insect populations such as Nysius and Springtails (always follow chemical withholding periods)
Ascend annual ryegrass is sprayed out before sowing a spring brassica crop
