Abstract
The authors discuss the development of a new treatment to control the crop pest, wild oats whose seed dormancy rated could be up to 18 years. An initial trial was conducted using dormant primary seed from hand harvested material grown during the 1956 season. The tentative conclusion which may be drawn from these trials is that gibberellic acid appears to show promise in breaking the dormancy of wild oat seeds
