    Happen every time. As soon as foodstuffs become plentiful, areas that don't need to use pre harvest try and make it an issue for marketing purposes. Then when shortages come it totally disappears as an issue. I don't use it on every field but do some acres that need it badly every year so it is a great agronomic tool and one that my farm can't do without. In one of your posts Austranada you mentioned that in the wet harvest of 21-22 pre harvest gly was used extensively in Oz but now that your back to typical harvest conditions you don't need it. There is your clue.

      I am pleased that glyphosate prices have come back down to a decent price. Under $5 per litre, more than a 50 percent fall from the highs last year. Regarding the OP post, we hardly ever use pre harvest on wheat and then only if there is a real bad weed problem. Its been a open fall and with the fall moisture its been a great fall spraying opportunity. A good glyphosate spraying job in the fall after harvest pays dividends next year with cleaner crops and less need for in-crop herbicides. Who remembers fighting Quack grass? It has been a lot of year since the last time I saw it in crop land on our farm.

        That’s a good price, I haven’t seen that low, is that for a full truckload to get that pricing?

          Been years since I sprayed stubble, seems like even a decent harvest weathers in early.

            Do you guys have access this formulation
            [url]https://www.arborgreen.com.au/product/3800-nufarm-crucial-600g-l-glyphosate-20l[/url]
            Or put it this way, what's the strongest formulation you can get other than dry granular?

              Are you talking 360 gram/liter or liter REL.?
              haven’t saw anything less than $5.95/lt for 540?

                I have never seen 600, 540 is common, I think there is a 720 out there somewhere. Nufarm is sold here though.

                  Data interoperability

                    You may have misunderstood. Preharvest gly is not used extensively in Oz. I live here, I know.

                    Consider glyphosate residue free certification. Detox project initiative has traction. Consulting with manitoba farmers participating now for several years. Adding value to what they grow rather than shutting themselves out of certain markets.

                      We paid $5.50/L of 540 this fall.

                      Equates to $3.67L of 360 gram.
