AHRI Snapshots
AHRI Snapshots is a podcast that provides information on what we do at the Australian Herbicide Resistance Initiative, as well as finding out what other researchers in weed science are up to around the country and the world. AHRI's researchers work out of the University of Western Australia, right next to the beautiful Swan River in WA's capital, Perth.

Incoming Director Ken Flower shares his vision for AHRI
On AHRI Snapshots this month, we have an exciting episode, as we catch up with AHRI’s incoming Director, Associate Professor Ken Flower.
Ken would be familiar to listeners as he’s been involved in AHRI projects for several years, contributing his substantial knowledge in no-till and agronomy to the AHRI Agronomy team.
He has a broad farming systems skillset, including in conservation farming and no-till systems, agronomy and cropping systems, precision agriculture, and weed control.
Ken’s vision for AHRI is to develop cropping systems with reduced dependence on herbicides for weed control. In this chat, we hear more about Ken’s background and what his plans are as AHRI Director when he formally begins his role in January.
