Prevention Best
For Weed Control
In Pastures
Weeds often cut improved
pasture and hay yields by SO
per cent or more. This, says
t M. Trrar, extension pasture
specialist, is the reason why
weeds should be controlled in
unproved pastures.
Weeds cut yields by stealing
mosture, plant nutrients and
light from the pasture or hay
plants, and some weeds prevent
grazing and lower hay quality.
Prevention is the best means
of weed control. Pastures that
are properly grazed and ferti-
lized usually do not have a
severe weed problem, said
Trew. Fencerows and roadsides
should be kept clean and weed
seed should not be brought in
by combines and other machin-
ery, in feed or in planting seed.
| Mowing is an effective means
j! of pasture weed control when
j properly timed. All weeds
I should be mowed before they
I produce seed. Some weeds, such
j as eastern bitterweed and
! yank weed will require at least
! two mowings in one season, he
said.
One spraying with 2,4 - D
with ground equipment costs
! about the same as one mowing,
| but ir the spraying is properly
done it is often as effective as j
! three mowings. One
limed application of 2,4-D oftenAlvrUlull AUlwJ
gives control for the entire sea-
son.

For spraying improved pas- whit.h vvas acquired in 1958 by
tures in areas of 30 inches an-
nual railfall, use 1 pound of
2,4-D amine to 10 to 25 gallons
of water per acre. Add 4 to 1
cup of liquid household or
i laundry detergent per 100 gal-
lons of spray mixture as a wet-
ting agent.
For stands of such grasses as
buffel and blue panic in areas
of less than 30 inches rainfall,
use 1 pound of 2,4-D amine or
(low volatile ester, with a wet-
ting agent, he said. For sum-
nier temporary pastures of Su-
dan and the like, use one half to
three fourths pound of 2,4-D
| amine in 10 to 25 gallons of
water per acre. Do not use a
whetting agent on these grasses.
Boom-type sprayers give the
most accurate placement of the
spray but are more trouble-
some, Trew said. Boomless-type
sprayers using a single nozzle
or a cluster of nozzles are fas-
ter and less trouble, and they
have a minimum of 15 gallons
of mixture per acre for good
coverage. Airplanes may be
used effectively, with spray
output at 5 gallons per acre.
Before spraying get a copy
of the State Herbicide regula-
tions and study them to see how
they apply to you, as they are
for your protection, added
Trew.
Ask your county agent for a
copy of Bulletin 892, “Weed
Control m Texas Pastures”.
This will give the full details of
pasture spraying.
