Extract

Intensive research in pastures and forage crops has stimulated an increased interest in grassland farming in the southern states. A great deal of emphasis has been given to the various phases of establishment and maintenance of permanent pastures. However, very little work has been reported on the possible use of chemicals for controlling weeds in grass-legume mixtures.
