Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Rat’s tail fescue competition reduced establishment of autumn sown direct-drilled pastures.
- Observation Rat’s tail fescue field populations reached 43 000 seedlings m-2.
- Intervention effect At at least 5x 103 seeds m-2, fescue reduced leaf number, height and dry matter yield of lucerne and phalaris under both fertility regimes.
- Intervention effect EPTC alone among evaluated herbicides significantly reduced fescue yield at 0.1 kg ha-1.
- Intervention effect EPTC allowed increased lucerne yield.
