Creator:: Chongwe, Edgar Happy
Abstract:: Three experiments whose objectives were to investigate cover crop kill by winter freeze, weed suppression by 'Micah' barley and other spring cereals, and allelopathic potential of cereal covers were conducted at the Vegetable Research Farm and in the greenhouse and growth chamber facilities at OSU in 1989/90. Kill by winter...
