Abstract/Contents: | "Poa spp. are common and can cause serious problems in Danish crops. During the last two decades, P. annua has shown decreased frequency in winter rye and clover/grass leys, but rather constant frequency in oilseed rape, spring barley and winter wheat. It is still the second most common Danish weed. Prohibition of straw-burning favours straw incorporation that may increase soil water capacity and in turf the frequency of Poa spp. The increasing area of winter cereals also favours annual grasses. Several grass herbicides can control Poa species, but legislation to reduce herbicide use will require their use to be integrated with cultural control measures." |
