Grassland in Scotland has seen a significant increase in rush infestation with rushes establishing in fields where there has not been a problem in living memory. During 2017 we hosted an event in Ayrshire based on winning the battle against rushes in upland systems, where we looked at the different management options available to farmers to control rushes.

This video revisits the site of that meeting and hear from agricultural consultant Robert Ramsay and the host farmer Jimmy Ireland, what treatments were used and what the results are a year later. For more information about last year's event read the event summary which is available on our webpage at https://www.fas.scot/?p=5590
