Weed Supressing Wheat
from GRDC - Driving Agronomy Podcasts · host Grains Research and Development Corporation
Scientists have developed lines of wheat capable of reducing weed growth by up to 60 percent. The new wheats out compete weeds such as ryegrass and many broadleaf weeds because of their early vigour. Trials in weedy paddocks have seen them outperform existing varieties in yield response. There is strong interest amongst wheat breeders for these new lines of high early vigour wheats.
