Integrated Weed Management manual
The Weeds CRC’s world-class Integrated Weed Management manual, describes a broad range of chemical and non-chemical tactics for weed management aimed at reducing the weed seedbank and the selection pressure for resistance on herbicides. The full 256 manual is available for free download. IWM Manual contents
Economic benefit Outlines the economic benefits of IWM in Australian cropping systems using computer model simulations. Herbicide Resistance It is crucial to understand the basics of herbicide resistance when managing weed populations that are resistant to one or more herbicide groups, or at risk of becoming resistant. Agronomy Discusses agronomic practices that can be used to enhance the results of weed management tactics. Includes many simple, cost-effective management changes for improving crop competition. Tactics Provides detailed information on a wide range of weed management tactics and presents trial results from across Australia. Information includes the impact of weed seed bank depletion and how to use the tactic to greatest impact/benefit. Implementing IWM Outlines how best to assess the on-farm situation and implement an IWM plan. Lists information that should be collected for each paddock, so that an effective weed management plan can be prepared. Weeds Details the characteristics of 20 key weeds of annual cropping across Australia. For each weed there is a recommendation of the most suited weed management tactics for control. Case studies Includes a number of grower case studies collected from across Australia. What made them change to IWM? What has been successful? What have been the challenges? |

| Effectiveness of herbicide resistance management strategies Author: Steve Walker Contains information from simulations of long-term impact on the weed seed-bank of different strategies to prevent the development of herbicide resistance. These simulations showed that the most effective strategy was the combination of crop rotation (summer and winter crops), rotation of herbicide groups and growing more competitive crops. Rotation of herbicide groups alone did not prevent rapid development of resistance. |

| Preventing herbicide resistance in 'at risk' weeds Herbicide resistance is an increasing threat facing both growers and agronomists across Australia´s northern grain region. Already 10 cropping weeds have been confirmed as herbicide resistant in various parts of this region, and more have been identified at risk of developing resistance, particularly to glyphosate. |

Managing feathertop Rhodes grass, A best weed management guide
This best weed management guide is an initiative of the GRDC funded projects, continued delivery of applied solutions to central Queensland weed issues and the central Queensland sustainable farming systems project (CQSFSP), and a taskforce of central Queensland growers, consultants and researchers. Feathertop Rhodes grass has become a major weed in farming systems on many central Queensland farms, as it has proven very difficult to control. The guide outlines what is currently known about managing this weed, and has been drawn from local research and industry experiences. It will be revised as more information becomes available from on-farm experience and research. (DAQ00105) |
