If you are unsure of your programme or have any particular problems, please contact us before you drill. Due to the withdrawal of some products and the nature of some of the mixtures, it is very important to have a clear herbicide programme before you start. Stale seedbeds are a well-established method of weed control and we would recommend that you use them wherever possible, particularly where a mixture is to be sown and another weed control is not possible. If using pre-emergence herbicides, then a moist, level, firm, clod-free surface is very important. For more specific advice, please call us and we will be happy to advise on each individual situation. If you need further advice with weed control, contact our Crop Protection team.
