Chris Maughan, Product and Technical Manager with Whelehan Crop Protection, discusses weed control on grazing and silage ground on this week's Beef Edge podcast.  Chris highlights the opportunity to control weeds, particularly docks in silage ground and grazing paddocks. Nettles and thistles are possibly the most common weed on farm and he outlines the best control method.  Chickweed is also an issue on some farms, maybe more so in new leys and Chris advises on treatment options.  In relation to reseeds, Chris says post-emergence spray is critical. However, in red clover and multispecies swards, it is more difficult to control weeds in these swards.  In addition, he outlines some options for condoling ragwort and rushes also. Finally, Chris highlights the regulations as well as the health and safety aspects of springs and maintaining a buffer of 3 metres. For more episodes from the Beef Edge podcast, visit the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/thebeefedge Produced on behalf of Teagasc by LastCastMedia.com

We've been wanting to get today's guest on for over a year now and finally, the stars align, and Chris Maughan CEO & Founder of I-PRAC joins us on the pod. As a young lad, Chris got his start in health spa management. A trip to Canes to explore the possibility of expanding that business for the company he worked for exposed him to entrepreneurial excitement and endless possibilities. As the business trip came to an end, Chis didn't want to move back up north and at just 25 years he went all in on figuring out this short-term rental game. His short-term rental property management company made some bold moves early on to gain traction and these early efforts paid off. The mantra of if you can't get in the front door, go around back resonates with Chis. His learnings from property and event management with some of the biggest companies in the world (MTV, Google, Disney...) exposed that business is won by trust and reputation and not necessarily product. This is where I-PRAC comes in. Keeping clients through service has never been more important in the vacation rental industry and certifying your inventory through his I-PRAC removes uncertainty. I-PRAC is now in 28 different countries and is the industry's only trust accreditation. A lot of amazing brand nuggets here to digest in this episode. Learn more about your ad choices.

Reputation used to be the cornerstone of a brand, but now it's all about trust. Airbnb is great at doing trust marketing. People who go to Airbnb already trust the Airbnb brand, and they're looking to book. Now they are trying to determine WHO to book with.And that's where building your brand trust is crucial. You could be losing 50 bookings a year just because your profile isn't on point—and it's about more than just great property photos.So, how do you build that trust?Chris Maughan is the CEO & Founder of I-PRAC. An experienced operator in holiday and commercial rentals for 17 years, he's passionate about transforming the short-term rental industry to make it a safe place for hosts and travelers worldwide.
