- Observation Horse purslane reached 33.33% relative density in the all-weeds check in 2018.
- Observation Horse purslane relative density reached 80% at 30 DAE in a 2019 plot controlled until 20 DAE.
- Observation Weed-free plots through 60 DAE had maximum grains per cob.
- Observation Weed-free plots through 60 DAE had maximum thousand-grain weight.
- Observation Weed-free plots through 60 DAE had maximum grain yield.
- Association Weed competition beyond 40 DAE substantially reduced maize yield.
- Intervention effect Keeping horse purslane out until 40 DAE may raise maize grain yield by up to 30% over unattended fields.
- Intervention effect Controlling all weeds until 40 DAE may produce 30% higher grain yield than whole-season weediness.
