Wheat growers could soon be growing autumn-established cover crops to help ward off the menace of resistant blackgrass that threatens to engulf their crops.
An autumn-sown cover crop ahead of a spring cereal could provide a significant key to the control of black-grass.
The war on blackgrass could take a new turn this year following a project by Agrovista and Bayer CropScience to assess the success, or otherwise, of using cover crops to help control black grass in combinable crops.
They deliver a range of soil and environmental benefits, fit well with spring cropping and have just received official greening recognition from Defra
Harvest is approaching rapidly and it is the time of year when the results of all our labours are clear for everyone to see.
This autumn's oilseed rape crops will be planted without any neonicotinoid seed dressings. Arable Farming rounds up some of the latest advice for getting them established
Another black-grass project with a five-year timeline is Project Lamport, a new initiative from Agrovista and Bayer CropScience.
Typically planted with oilseed rape, companion plants are designed to improve establishment of oilseed rape through rooting synergy, reducing pest and weed pressure taking up Nutrients in the autumn and releasing in the spring, increasing yield and significantly improving soil structure.
Planted in autumn to allow germination of grassweeds, maintain soil structure, keep soil dry at depth but retain moisture in surface to allow drilling of Spring crop to break autumn weed cycle
