Securing the Spring: The Strategic Importance of Autumn Herbicide Trials

In agronomy, a successful spring season is anticipated as early as the autumn sowing. For winter crops (cereals, oilseed rape), early weed management is the primary limiting factor for crop establishment.

Faced with the constant pressure of difficult grass weeds (black-grass, ryegrass), autumn weed control programs require absolute technical precision. It is within this context of agronomic urgency that the Staphyt field trial network deploys its full value.

Through our GEP (Good Experimental Practice) trials, we generate the robust data necessary to validate your solutions:

• Targeted efficacy: Evaluation of your herbicides’ performance (pre-emergence and early post-emergence) under specific autumn climatic constraints (temperature fluctuations, hygrometry).
• Strict crop safety: Proof of your formulations’ safety on young seedlings during their most vulnerable developmental stages.
• Soil behavior: Monitoring of carry-over to ensure a safe spring crop rotation.

Conducting these trials in the autumn is essential to consolidate your regulatory dossiers and technically validate the positioning of your specialty products.

Our field teams are fully mobilized. Plan your trials today to guarantee flawless technical recommendations in the spring.
