Send us a text!In this episode of Regional Update, we're joined by Joe Koch, a grower from the Flinders Ranges in South Australia.Joe and his family run a mixed "crops and chops" operation in separate high and low rainfall zones. With a rare wet start (200ml from the end of March - April!) under their belts, they've been faced with higher numbers of ryegrass, barley grass, marshmallow weed, capeweed and milk thistle!Joe has been keeping busy on the boomspray, getting in some double-knocks as well as narrow windrow burning. With a bit of imi and glyphosate resistance starting to creep into the region, he's also a big proponent of diverse cropping and mixing and rotating herbicides.Tune in to also hear his reasoning behind their latest purchase - a new green-on-brown sprayer!Learn more about WeedSmart and the Big 6 framework for proven weed management practices by visiting our website. Don't forget to follow us on our socials:Twitter/XBlueskyFacebookLinkedInInstagramKeen for a monthly update?  Subscribe here!Got a question or topic you are interested to hear about?  Send us an: [email protected] up our other WeedSmart podcasts & audio: #RegionalUpdates & #BeyondResistance podcasts for great stories from across the Australian growing regions.  #Paddocktalk fortnightly weed management news & updates for you.#drivesafe #farmsafe
