Grapevine herbicides
A problem that is present in several vineyard areas is the spread of some types of infesting weeds, such as Conyza canadensis, which have developed a certain resistance to the most widely used herbicide in viticulture: glyphosate.
The objective of this Campo Demo is to show alternative products and strategies for controlling these infesting weeds in the vineyards.

Soybean herbicides
In collaboration with the Sustainable weed management group of
DISAFA department (University of Turin) a trial comparing different soybean weed control lines was conducted.

Maize herbicides
The Maize herbicides Campo Demo, organized in collaboration with Cooperative Riunite Agricole Bresciane and the Department of Agricultural, Forest and Food Sciences of the University of Turin, has the aim of evaluating different herbicide mixtures applied at three different times (pre-emergent, early post-emergence and late post-emergence). In addition, in testing the mixtures there is the desire to reduce the presence of certain active ingredients whose use has been limited. During the event, participating agricultural products companies will present some of their innovative weed control solutions.
This year as well Campo Demo will be replicated in Piedmont in Podere Pignatelli. Here, another herbicides trial will be added in the experimentation in the post-emergence phase after a false sowing, in order to reduce the pressure of infestants before sowing.
Grapevine herbicides
Autumn herbicides is an uncommon practice in viticulture. We tried several residual action molecules combined with active ingredients with contact action and also glyphosate.
Cereal herbicides
Maize herbicides
The theme of this year’s edition will be the evaluation of molecules or strategies that could substitute the use of sulphonylureas in the management of weeds for maize.
The widespread use of these molecules has in fact increased the number or weeds that are resistant to them.
Grapevine herbicides
A rising problem in many areas of the world is the spread of biotypes of Conyza canadensis and Lolium multiflorum resistant to glyphosate.
The goal of this Campo Demo is to evaluate alternative products and strategies for controlling these weeds in the vineyard.
Soybean herbicides
Control strategies of Sorghum halepense, adding biostimulants in herbicide mixtures with a single time of application.
