Tillage
Grass weeds are a problem in Ireland, especially in winter cereals. There are plenty of herbicide options for control of grass weeds.
Last week, some farmers in Co. Cork took advantage of the good weather to get out and sow the first of this year's winter barley.
Skinned malting barley grains are not a new phenomenon, according to Teagasc's Ciaran Collins, as it has always been present.
