Other claims from this paper (4)
- Association Number of mowing passes was linearly related to subsequent-year aboveground biomass of Cirsium arvense.
- Observation Regression coefficients for mowing and biomass did not differ between the two regression lines in either experiment.
- Observation Regression intercepts differed significantly within both experiments.
- Mechanism Mowing or competitive cropping supports depletion of root carbohydrates and diminished regrowth capacity.
