Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Preseeding glyphosate at 400 or 800 g/ha killed foxtail barley seedlings.
- Intervention effect Preseeding glyphosate only suppressed established foxtail barley perennials.
- Intervention effect Postharvest glyphosate at 800 g/ha killed 60 to 70% of established foxtail barley plants.
- Intervention effect Combined preseeding and postharvest glyphosate gave the greatest reductions in foxtail barley biomass and seed production.
- Intervention effect Combined preseeding and postharvest glyphosate gave the greatest crop yield increases.
- Intervention effect Flax rotation enabled grass herbicides that effectively controlled foxtail barley seedlings and partly suppressed perennials.
- Intervention effect Raising wheat seeding rate from 75 to 115 kg/ha reduced foxtail barley growth.
- Intervention effect Increasing flax seeding rate provided little benefit for weed management or crop yield.
- Intervention effect Narrower wheat and flax rows provided little benefit for weed management or crop yield.
- Recommendation Authors recommend a multiyear combination of agronomic practices and timely herbicides for foxtail barley management.
