With hot weather forecast this week, don't forget that maleic hydrazide relies on open stomata to be most effective and can cause damage when applied at temperatures above 26 degrees. Choose your Fazor spray timings wisely to get the best out of the active. #FazeOutTheCompetition

Considering variety choice and ordering seed? With many crops this autumn being drilled after fallow, there is likely increased pressue from soil borne pests such as wireworm & bulb fly. Whatever the variety, ensure it is treated approppriately. #Signal300 #ZoneOfProtection

Love the idea of a complement to chemical herbicides that does not have resistance issues but sure hope it comes with an extinguisher! #weedzapper

Never say Never - for those who plumped for another year of #OSR, this amino acid foliar biostimulant can give young plants the competitive edge against flea beetle damage. ARYAMIN-C from UPL delivered a yield improvement of 14% in 2019 trials.

Team Technical’s herbicide lead Rob Adamson was in some rather large OSR yesterday. At 5 true leaves already, #CenturionMax should be applied sooner rather than later to early drilled and rapidly growing crops like these. Remember to follow the #clethodimstewardship.
