Feather Top Rhodes (FTR) grass has become an increasingly prevalent problem in the Northern cropping region because of the difficulty in control of established plants in fallow situations and in-crop. A key strategy to managing FTR is to reduce the establishment of populations through use of residual herbicides. Some industry research has focused on the use of pre-emergent residuals such as Dual Gold (s-metalochlor) for management of Feather Top Rhodes either, in fallows or post sowing/ pre-emergent in crop. Dual Gold is registered on a range of grass weed species in sorghum, maize and a number of other field crops. Syngenta has recently submitted a registration application which seeks the inclusion of FTR at current registered rates on label. Dual Gold, at current label rates, provided effective reduction of FTR populations in-fallow in trials when tank mixed with Gramoxone in a double knock following a Glyphosate application. Post sowing, pre-emergent applications of Dual Gold significantly reduced populations of FTR in sorghum up to 60 days after application.
