Sustainable agriculture is farming with tomorrow in mind.
It's knowing that the decisions you make today shape what your land can produce next year, next decade, and for the next generation. When you farm sustainably, you're proving that profitability and environmental health aren't opposite choices – they're partners. Your farm becomes a business that thrives while building healthier soil and richer biodiversity.
Working with nature, not against it, just makes sense.
When you choose practices that mirror natural systems – building soil fertility instead of depleting it, protecting water instead of polluting it, supporting biodiversity instead of eliminating it – you're creating resilience. Your farm becomes stronger, more adaptable, and more productive over time.
FireHawk Bioherbicide fits naturally into this approach.

Control of Serrated Tussock
Serrated tussock is destroying Australian pastures, and every grazier knows the real cost.
Watch your livestock lose condition as they try to digest what they can't process – high fiber, no protein, no nutrition. Watch your land value drop with every new infestation. In the worst cases, watch animals starve in paddocks full of grass they can't eat. This isn't just a weed problem; it's a crisis that threatens everything you've built.
The conventional approach has a fatal flaw.
Sure, you can hit serrated tussock with glyphosate and watch the plants die. But here's what happens next: those thousands of seeds the plant already produced? They're still viable, waiting to germinate. You've killed the parent but left an army of offspring ready to take its place. And the alternative – flupropanate – comes with toxicity concerns that make many farmers think twice.
FireHawk Bioherbicide changes the game entirely.
Our Naturally Powerful contact bioherbicide, supercharged with our patented formula, does what others can't: it desiccates both the tussock plants AND their seeds. Think about that – you're not just controlling what's visible above ground; you're stopping the next generation before it starts.
Here's how smart control works:
Load up your four-wheeler with FireHawk mixed and ready. Use those remote hand sprayers to hit the center of each tussock plant, making sure to cover any seed heads. Watch as both plant and seeds begin to brown and desiccate within hours. Then comes the follow-up strategy – when regrowth appears from roots or when seeds from the soil bank germinate, you hit them again. That second application typically establishes control, with touch-ups as needed when more buried seeds germinate over time.
This is strategic thinking, not just spraying.
As FireHawk breaks down into CO₂ and water, your soil stays healthy and ready for the pasture grasses your livestock actually need. No withholding periods disrupting your grazing rotation. No residues accumulating in your soil. The active ingredient, nonanoic acid, occurs naturally in many food crops – it's effective chemistry that works with your land, not against it.
