These field trials evaluate herbicide strategies for weed control in preseed and chemical fallow systems under central Alberta conditions. The research compares products, application rates, timings and tank mixes to generate independent data for effective and sustainable fallow weed management.
Funders/Partners: Valent, Nufarm, FMC
Project Overview
- Conducting five no-crop fallow herbicide trials to evaluate weed control strategies.
- Monitoring weed control throughout the growing season to understand the effectiveness and persistence of treatments.
- Assessing herbicide performance against multiple prairie weed species under central Alberta field conditions.
- Comparing different products, application rates, timings and tank-mix combinations.
Project Goals
- Identify effective herbicide strategies for fallow weed management.
- Compare weed control across different herbicide products, rates and application timings.
- Evaluate herbicide performance across multiple weed species.
- Generate independent data to support practical weed management recommendations for Alberta producers and industry partners.
