WHY CLEANCROP™?
The Cleancrop™ Brassica System is a simple weed management system which eradicates a range of key problem weeds, commonly found in brassica crops, that take away moisture and nutrients from your crop. With competition down, yield goes up. Combining the power of broad-spectrum herbicide Telar® and plants bred to tolerate it, the Cleancrop™ Brassica System is the ideal way to maximise crop performance.
