Developing knowledge and tools to better manage herbicide residues in soil – Research findings fact sheet
Led by Dr Michael Rose from the NSW Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development. this project developed over 80 new herbicide-soil-crop critical damage thresholds that can help growers and advisers interpret soil and plant tissue tests. Read our research findings fact sheet.
Developing knowledge and tools to better manage herbicide residues in soil – Final project report
Herbicides are widely used in Australian agricultural systems for weed control. Some herbicides can persist in soil long enough to carry over from one cropping season to the next, which can pose a risk of injuring the following crop. Led by Dr Mick Rose, this project (4.2.001) aimed to develop new knowledge and tools for managing herbicide residues in soil. Read the final project report.
