Extract

Peas grown for canning purposes are subject to infestations of weeds even though recommended cropping practices are followed. If weeds are numerous they cause reduced yields of shelled peas and variable maturity. The quality of the pack of peas may also be affected for floral buds and fragments of the weeds are difficult to separate from the shelled peas. Excessive costs for seed peas may result from using high seeding rates in an attempt to control weeds by increasing the competitive ability of the peas.
