    1SARDI, Minnipa Agricultural Centre, 2Wisdom Data and Mapping, Loxton, 3Drone View Photography, Cleve.

    Funded By: SAGIT S117

    Project Title: Swathing for barley grass weed seed collection and applying drone technology.

    Peer Review: Nigel Wilhelm (SARDI)

    Key Words: barley grass, weed control

    Key Messages

    • UAV imagery with skilled specialist analysis and programs has the potential to identify and map weed issues in paddocks.
    • Grass weed patches are easier to identify in legume and pasture crops than cereal crops.
    • Variability in germination and crop growth makes it harder to identify grass weed areas.
    • Data capture and analysis for analytical purposes such as grass weed mapping in individual paddocks will be beyond most farm businesses unless farmers have a special interest in this area.
    • Group A resistant barley grass has once again been detected at the Minnipa Agricultural Centre. Barley grass resistance to Group A herbicides has been detected 3 times in 3 years, so be aware it is in current farming systems.
