Weed control is becoming more difficult with herbicide resistance of one or more weeds now on most farms.  For this episode of The Tillage Edge, Ciaran Collins and Shay Phelan, Tillage Specialists at Teagasc, explain how to get good weed control in spring cereals, even where resistance is an issue. 

Shay says that sequencing weed control around wild oats can be effective in ensuring good control of all weeds while Ciaran says that tank mixing of a number of products in the same tank is possible, with some care, but he emphasises a strong growing plant is key to minimising damage to the plant.
