CropCast Episode 16 - June 2021

On this episode Market Development Agronomist Craig White, walks and talks with SCF CEO Nathan Dovey at a co-located trial site in Southern WA near Albany with the Stirlings to Coast Farmers (SCF) Group. At this site Bayer has established Mateno® Complete trials, and SCF is undertaking interesting mid-row banding of fertiliser trials to increase fertiliser Nitrogen use efficiency and encourage vigorous crop growth. Stay tuned for future episodes with updates on progress at this trial site. Bayer is a long time supporter of SCF. Market Development Agronomists Gus MacLennan and Craig White talk about the field trial program right around Australia and how the team are updating advisers and growers on important topics, and how Bayer solutions can work for them in their paddocks. Gus and Craig explain the attributes of Mateno® Complete herbicide. This herbicide is currently under development by Bayer for grass and broadleaf weed control in wheat and barley, with flexible Incorporated by Sowing (IBS) or Early Post Emergence (EPE) application timings depending on the crop. They delve into Early Post Emergence timing and the benefits this provides including the ability to control early, competitive weeds emerging across the soil surface profile (in-furrow, on furrow shoulder, in inter-row)and longer residual control period into the season. Field trial experience from previous seasons and results are very promising. Bayer Crop Science Australia will be showing Mateno Complete trials throughout Australia in 2021, and there is sure to be a trial or demonstration in a paddock near you.
