Eric has extensive experience in integrated weed management including six years with the CRC for Australian Weed Management. Eric’s research from 2008 to 2012 focused on herbicide resistance and involved three surveys across southern and central NSW identifying resistance levels to the major herbicide groups In August 2016 Eric commenced work on a CRDC funded project, “Hard to control weeds in Cotton Farming Systems”. The work in this project is part of a number of studies investigating the level of herbicide resistance in major weeds of cotton farming systems. The project includes weed surveys and herbicide resistance screening. In 2017 Eric was appointed as the Technical Lead for Weed Management with CottonInfo.
