| Abstract/Contents: | "Field experiments were conducted during two cropping seasons at two sites in Botswana to determine the efficacy of combining glyphosate and tillage in controlling C. dactylon. Treatments consisted of no-tillage, single and double ploughing during winter and spring plus the application of glyphosate at 0, 1.08, and 2.16 kg ha-1 3-4 weeks after the last ploughing. Visual assessment indicated higher levels of grass control from combining glyphosate and tillage than when these elements were applied separately. However, biomass data indicated that either double ploughing or glyphosate application controlled C. dactylon. A single ploughing followed by glyphosate at 2.16 kg ha-1 after a regrowth of C. dactylon may provide an effective and affordable control method to small-scale farmers." |
