It will be difficult for farmers
to Ignore small grains this
seanoa. The advantages of
growing these fall - planted
crops apparently an greater
than ever. f
Seeding has already begun,
now that rains have finally oome
to most of the state. Some North
Carolina farmers are planting
the wheat, oats, barley or
rye as cash crops, others as a
supplement to feed supplies
that have been shortened by
corn blight and others as
a soil conservation practice.
But an advantage farmers
may be less aware of than all
of these Is the weed control
effects of the winter crops.
At least three weeds that are
problems under no-tlllage conditions
can be controlled by
choking them out with small
grains this fall and winter,
according to Drs. W. M. Lewis
and Harold Coble, extension
weed control specialists at
North Carolina State University.
They Identified the three
weeds as horse weed — also
known as mare's tail—wild lettuce
and cutleaf evening primrose.
These pests are found
In abundance throughout much of
the state and present serious
economic problems for many
farmers. Horseweed, for example,
reduced corn yields by
25 bushels per acre In a
Wayne County extension test
plot this year.
Herbicides normally used on
corn, soybeans, cotton and other
crops don't control these particular
weeds. As herbicides
have been increasingly substituted
for mechanical cultivation,
these weeds have grown
more serious. This Is particularly
true, Lewis and Coble
Don't litter.
