Description of Tested Tactic
The current study assessed the effect of 30 years of application of those systems on the weed abundance and community composition. The aims of this investigation were to verify whether differently intensive fodder systems gave rise to di-verse weed flora in the long run and, thus, whether intensification of cropping resulted in any specific weed problem.
Description of Reference System
Continuous grain maize and a permanent meadow of Ladino white clover + tall fescue
Reference System Type
HERBICIDE-BASED
IWM Pillar
Diverse cropping system
