What adjuvant use with Terrador + Glyphosate spray for ryegrass. Also are you more inclined to use 20g (below label) or 40g? I’ve done a trial in pots testing all the 8 options below I’ll share in 2 weeks. Glyph-resistant ryegrass will then be double knocked w glufo + terrador

2,4-DB vs same rate of ai (1000gai/ha) of 2,4D amine (dropzone), Dicamba, Dicamba M. Just 1DAT. 24DB would appear safer to a number of clover species, serradella, Messina, Sheep Burnet, interestingly chicory and plantain. Appears not safe to Bisserula, Tedera, Lupin,forage rape
