Show Notes

In this episode of AHRI Snapshots, we’re catching up with AHRI’s Dr Danica Goggin about her latest paper which looks at cinmethylin metabolism in annual ryegrass. 

Cinmethylin is a relatively new pre-emergent herbicide to Australian cereal cropping farming systems. While there hasn’t been any confirmed resistance of annual ryegrass to cinmethylin, there has been some populations which have had reduced sensitivity to it. 

Danica joins us to explain what the paper authors found the cause to be of this reduced sensitivity and what this means for its use in the field.
