Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Imazapic reduced leafy spurge stem density, canopy cover and yield for 1 to 2 years in all treatments that included it.
- Intervention effect Single and combination treatments gave no difference in leafy spurge control.
- Intervention effect Aphthona spp. and interseeded native grasses, alone or combined, did not reduce leafy spurge density or cover.
- Observation Aphthona spp. population remained low throughout the study at both locations.
- Observation Forb yield increased during the study at the SNG but not at the Walcott location.
- Observation Warm-season grass yield increased at Walcott but not at the SNG.
- Observation Leafy spurge stem density declined from 92 to 50 stems/m2 in 5 years at the SNG site.
