- Intervention effect Wiping reduced weed numbers more effectively than mowing in the following year.
- Intervention effect Mowing increased blueberry yields more effectively than wiping up to 50% weed cover.
- Intervention effect Mowing increased blueberry yields more effectively than no treatment up to 50% weed cover.
- Observation Average blueberry yields under mowing tended to decline above 50% weed cover but remained greater than without treatment.
