Weed Control "
Vital Course 1
Weed control is a very im-
portant part of good pasture
management. Good pasture, /
properly managed, plays an •
important part in pollution
control, which concerns
everyone.
Weed control in pastures
means that the grass has a
better chance to grow and
provide a good cover on the
ground. Weeds rob grasses of
plant food and moisture that is
needed to produce a healthy
vigorous plant.
Weeds in pastures can be
controlled by chemical or
mechanical methods or
combination of both.
a
Chemical control is generally
more effective and more
economical. Most weeds can be
controlled in pastures by ap-
plying a weed killer in March.
In areas where cotton is grown,
chemical weed killers should
not be applied after cotton is
planted. Directions concerning
use of chemicals should be
closely followed. When applied
in the proper amounts and at
the proper time, most her-
bicides are safe to use and do
not have any residual effect on
plants and animals.
For information on chemical
control of weeds in pastures you
may contact your county agent,
the Soil Conservation Service or
herbicide dealers in your area.
