Grass weed management in pasture

The GRDC project ‘Maintaining profitable farming systems with retained stubble - upper Eyre Peninsula’ aims to produce sustainable management guidelines to control pests, weeds and diseases while retaining stubble to maintain or improve soil health, and reduce exposure to wind erosion. The major outcome to be achieved is increased knowledge and skills allowing farmers and advisers to improve farm profitability while retaining stubble in farming systems on upper Eyre Peninsula (EP).The Minnipa Agricultural Centre S3S pasture trial was established in 2013 to assess barley grass weed management with a two year medic pasture break. The trial had different grass weed management and tillage treatments imposed in 2013 and in 2014. The trial was then sown with wheat in 2015.

GRDC项目「保留残茬以维持盈利耕作系统——艾尔半岛北部」旨在制定可持续管理指南，在保留作物残茬以维持或改善土壤健康、降低风蚀风险的同时，实现病虫害、杂草及病害的防控。该项目的核心目标是提升认知水平与实操技能，助力艾尔半岛北部（EP）耕作系统中的农户与农技顾问在保留残茬的同时提升农场盈利能力。明尼帕农业中心S3S牧草试验于2013年设立，旨在通过两年的苜蓿牧草休耕期，评估大麦草杂草的防控方案。该试验于2013年与2014年分别施加了不同的禾本科杂草防控与耕作处理措施，并于2015年播种小麦。
