In-season solutions and support at your fingertips.
Nitrogen in the autumn is quite vulnerable to environmental escape – warm soils mean rapid conversion to nitrate, crops with limited root networks struggle to pick up the nitrate, and more rainfall in the autumn can leach away nitrate or prompt denitrification in waterlogged soils.
This is where Instinct® comes in.
Achieving high yields starts with the successful establishment of oilseed rape. But it doesn’t stop there; effective autumn weed control is crucial to support your crop. Remember, oilseed rape isn’t the toughest competitor out there, so if there are weeds present, take control of them with an early post-emergence application of Belkar.
Read our article on oilseed rape establishment and weed control to get some detailed advice on how to do this effectively here.

In oilseed rape, yield responses of up to 7% were observed when Instinct was used with slurry in the autumn. Instinct can reduce leaching by around 50% and reduce denitrification through greenhouse gases by 45%. This means nitrogen is kept in the soil for longer.

New data from a Corteva Agriscience survey shows that 80% of respondents have populations on their farms with the vast majority estimating it to be infesting up to 25% of their winter wheat area in 2023.
Cultural control methods such as rotational planning, delayed drilling and ploughing are being deployed on every farm involved in the research, and the brome problem has been shown to exist in all the main wheat-growing regions of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Alister McRobbie, Cereal Herbicides Category Manager, said: “This work provides more clarity on how widespread brome issues are and the various approaches being taken to reduce populations.
