That’s why Australia’s agricultural sector has united to establish WeedSmart, an industry-led initiative to enhance on-farm practices and promote the long term sustainability of herbicide use.
Research partners, commercial organisations, government, advisors and growers have joined forces to ensure weed management is at the forefront of global farming practice.
Pioneer is one of the founding contributors of the WeedSmart Steering Group that draws on broad industry support to bring you leading tools and information.
Sustainable herbicide use will secure the viability of the Australian agricultural sector.

Over-reliance on a single weed control method causes increased selection pressure and development of resistant weed populations.
You also add the risk of consequential loss of a particular herbicide-tolerant system and you can even jeopardise your ability to grow a specific crop in a specific paddock.
Work proactively through integrated weed management practices to maintain or create diversity for successful management of a resistant weed population.
To remain sustainable we must integrate and diversify strategies for weed control and herbicide use.
