CA-CoP CONSERVATION AGRICULTURE COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE
for sustainable production intensification
Dear Subscribers,
I am forwarding herewith a self-explanatory message from Geoffrey Meikle from the University of Fort Hare, South Africa. Geoffrey has been working on a herbicide roller for weed control in CA situations.
Geoffrey would welcome input from CA-CoP subscribers who are working on weed control in CA.
Please respond directly to Geoffrey.

Dear Amir,
I have done some work on a herbicide roller for weed control in CA situations. The roller seems to be a workable tool. A short report on progress so far is attached.
The roller is simple to construct. I would welcome input from people working on weed control in CA.
Regards from
