How does it work?

We ask questions around the 7 key areas listed below, as well as your rainfall zone to give an overview of your chemical and non-chemical weed control strategies.

Crop Rotation

Don’t just grow what pays — grow what keeps paying.

A tight rotation might look fine on paper, but if it’s wheat–barley–canola on repeat, weeds are quietly setting up shop. Break crops like legumes or a pasture phase help disrupt weed cycles, boost soil nitrogen, and reduce your reliance on expensive inputs.

Throw in a double break (think legume–canola–cereal), and you’ve got a weed, disease, and nutrition reset that can pay off for seasons to come.

Even if things are working well now, it’s worth pulling your rotation apart, pressure-testing it, and putting it back together stronger.

Rotation Planning Time or What is the most important thing in weed control?

Give your crops the head start — not the weeds.

Narrow rows, higher seeding rates, early sowing, and picking vigorous varieties help your crops canopy faster and shade out the competition.

More crop, less light, fewer weeds.

It’s one of the simplest, cheapest ways to slow resistance — and it makes every other weed control tool work harder.

Crop Competition, the perfect companion to Harvest Weed Seed Control

Weeds are tough enough — don’t make it easier for them.

Correct nozzles, boom height, droplet size, water rates, and spraying in the right conditions all make or break a good knockdown.

It’s not just about hitting the weeds — it’s about doing it well enough the first time, so they don’t come back stronger.

Good spraying isn’t guesswork — it’s a system.

Rotating herbicides slows resistance. Mixing them slows it even more.

Hit weeds with two modes of action at once — both at full rates — and you make it twice as hard for them to survive.

Mix today. Rotate tomorrow. Keep weeds guessing and your chemistry working longer.

Every weed that sets seed is next year’s problem — and the year after that.

Stopping weed seed set is about going hard late: spray escapes, crop-top, brown manure, do whatever it takes to shut the gate before harvest.

Zero seed set isn’t always possible, but every seed you stop today is one you don’t have to fight tomorrow.

If a weed makes it to harvest, don’t give it a free ride out the back of the header. HWSC is about stopping weed seeds before they ever hit the ground — whether you crush them, catch them, burn them, or bale them. Tools like the Seed Terminator turn harvest from clean-up into control — smashing 98% of weed seeds as you go, no second chances. You’ve already grown the crop — now finish the job properly.

Crush the seedbank, not just the crop.

Herbicide resistance doesn’t happen all at once — it’s slow, sneaky, and easy to miss until it’s too late.

Every time you spray and a few weeds survive, you're training the next generation to be tougher.

Over time, simple, predictable chemical use gives weeds an easy roadmap to beat you.

That’s where Harvest Weed Seed Control (HWSC) steps in — to take out the fittest weeds that have survived everything you’ve thrown at them all year.

Mixing modes of action, rotating crops, and smashing seed set at harvest make it harder for resistance to build.

You don’t have to ditch herbicides — you just have to make them work smarter, not harder.
