Basic tender information about # 16162811

Feathertop Rhodes Grass Is A Highly Aggressive Weed That, Despite Being A Focus Of Several Research Efforts, Is Continuing To Increase In Incidence And Severity In Northern Farming Systems. The Recent Confirmation Of Resistance To Glyphosate Also Highlights The Need To Manage The Weed With An Integrated Systems Approach. This Proposal Builds On Work In Daq00105, Us00084, And Nga00004 That Have Investigated Various Strategies For Managing Feathertop Rhodes Grass In The Summer/Winter Cropping Areas Of The Northern Region. To Facilitate Improved Management Of Feathertop Rhodes Grass In Queensland And Northern Nsw, A Communication And Extension Campaign Is Required. The Procurement Will Update The Current Feathertop Rhodes Grass Integrated Weed Management Iwm Publication For Winter/Summer Cropping Areas By Incorporating Recent Research Results And Will Be Used As The Focus Of A Targeted Extension Campaign. In The Winter Cropping Areas Of Southern Nsw, Research Is Required To Develop A Locally Adapted Feathertop Rhodes Grass Iwm Plan For The Prevailing Farming System. This Should Be Based On The Existing Iwm Plan But Will Need To Address: 1. Differences In The Value Of Residual Herbicides Based On The Presence Of Sandy, Acidic, Low Oc Soils, Lower And Winter Dominant Rainfall And Crop Choice Taking Into Account Possible Product Registration Opportunities 2. Differences In The Effectiveness Of Cultivation Based On Soil Type 3. Use Of Site-Specific Weed Management 4. Opportunities For Management In The Pasture Phase E.G. Chemical Options And With Grazing As A First Step In A Double Knock And 5. The Impact Of Livestock On Both Spread And/Or Control Of The Weed E.G. Livestock Field Preference And Feathertop Rhodes Grass Regrowth. Extension Of This Work To Growers In Southern Nsw Is A Key Component Of This Procurement.
