    Chicory herbicide trial : final report 2212
    (BSES, 2002) Collins, J
    Chicory is currently a commercially cultivated root crop mainly grown in Belgium. Small areas of Chicory for Whitlof production are grown in Australia mainly in the state of Victoria. The objective of this project was to identify potential herbicides for controlling a broad range of weed species found in Bundaberg District. Currently in Australia Trifluralin is the only herbicide registered for use on Chicory in Victoria. This project was conducted with the cooperation of the Queensland Department of Primary Industry. The herbicide treatments were applied to an area of a irrigation trial conducted on the Department of Primary Industry's research farm, Ashfield Road, Bundaberg. Herbicides were selected according to the spectrum of weeds controlled and the probability of crop damage. All the herbicides used were currently registered in Australia for the control of certain weeds in other crops. Crop damager and weed control were assessed to identify suitable herbicides.
