The research objective was to develop an effective herbicide program for management of weeds in seed crops of T. tumens during establishment. Glasshouse experiments were undertaken using 8 pre-emergent and 29 post-emergent herbicides. The effect of herbicides on plant numbers, leaf number, shoot number, leaf width, plant height, and damage rating, were recorded, and lists of potential pre- and post-emergent herbicides were assembled. Further field and glasshouse experiments will confirm acceptable rates of application for implementing a successful weed control program in seed crops of T. tumens.
