Suitability and efficacy of chaff lining for weed control in western Canada

The Challenge

With higher occurrence of herbicide resistant weeds, easily implemented and effective non-chemical weed control methods are needed.

The Project

Assess weed seed collection and movement from the chaff while evaluating the effects of chaff lines of soil fertility and crop/weed emergence.

The Results

This section will be updated upon completion of this project.

Grower Benefits

Further investigation into harvest weed seed control will give farmers the tools for maximal control of weeds, saving costs on herbicides and promoting a healthy crop.
