Abstract/Contents: | "As part of an ongoing research project funded by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, a trial comparing total vegetation control provided by fall and spring applications of three herbicide combinations was established along a guiderail near State College, PA. If fall applications of bare ground herbicide treatments were as effective as spring treatments, this would widen the application window, and provide more flexibility in scheduling such treatments...The results of this test suggest that even late fall applications of non-selective herbicides do not provide enough residual activity to provide acceptable weed control the following spring, at least when spring-applied rates are used. These treatments can not be applied much later in the fall, as the weather becomes much more uncertain. During the winter of 1993/1994, there was continuous snow cover from mid-December to late March. Based on the results of this , and previous trials, it appears that higher application rates will have to be part of future investigations into late fall herbicide applications for total vegetation control." |
