Abstract
Herbicides and mechanical methods of weed control were tested on 1 and 2-year-old peach trees (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) on two soil types and locations. Several herbicide methods gave season-long weed control without detriment to growth or yield of peach trees. In general, a cultural system where herbicides were used in rows and 8-ft sodded strips maintained in row middles did not decrease the growth or yield of trees when compared to overall mechanical methods of weed control.
