Our June Regional Update gives us an insight into the Northern cropping region during this year, as crops are being harvested and sown simultaneously with the season presenting a few challenges.  Hear from UQ graduate, Max Schmelzer as he talks about herbicide resistance and tools in the box working to address the weed seed bank across their family farm.

A focus on the insights from new technology used helps to address the weed strategy for the future germinations across their dual season enterprise.  Taking note of the data created from weed control applications helps inform potential sources of new outbreaks, adding value to the weed management strategy.
