Water pH and the Performance of Weak Acid Herbicides
Weak-acid herbicides must remain in their non-ionised (acid) form to move efficiently through the plant cuticle. When spray water is too alkaline, the herbicide molecule becomes ionised.
Towards Modern Vegetation Management: Solutions for Australia’s Linear Infrastructure
Understanding the Changing Vegetation Challenge Vegetation management across Australia’s linear infrastructure corridors is becoming increasingly complex. Roads, rail corridors, gas pipelines, elec...
