A strategic approach to weed management for the Australian vegetable industry

This investment aims to deliver weed management tools and approaches for the Australian vegetable industry. The four-year project is identifying and improving integrated management strategies for high-priority weeds, and is developing guidelines and a range of resources for growers. Its work will ultimately help reduce the dependence on herbicides and tillage for weed control, which is ineffective when used repeatedly.
