C. S. Hoveland; G. A. Buchanan; E. D. Donnelly Weed Science 1971. doi:10.1017/s0043174500048189

Other claims from this paper (6)

Intervention effect Preplant vernolate reduced grass and broadleaf weed populations in sericea lespedeza.
Intervention effect Sericea was unaffected by preplant vernolate.
Intervention effect The herbicide treatment allowed a hay cutting in the establishment year with only a minor effect on next-year production.
Intervention effect The beneficial effect of vernolate on sericea yield continued into the second year.
Intervention effect Sericea seeding rate did not affect weed competition or forage yield.
Recommendation A seeding rate of 11 kg/ha with 3.4 kg/ha vernolate is the most practical treatment.
