Summary

Teagasc is running a weekly Let's Talk Dairy webinar series which is also being made available as a bonus podcast episode. In this webinar, Stuart Childs, Teagasc Dairy Specialist, is joined by Ciaran Collins, Tillage Specialist, to discuss weed control, following up on the recent webinar with Deirdre Hennessy on establishing grass-white clover swards. Ciaran gave an overview of Integrated Pest Management (IPM); pesticides and water; 2,4DB; herbicides for new lays; and pests in new lays. We should be working towards avoiding the use of pesticides by focusing on soil fertility as it underpins grassland performance as well as reseeding establishment. Having a strong reseed established has a greater power to avoid pests issues as well as the power to suppress weeds which reduces the requirement of chemical usage in the lifetime of the sward.
