| Infestation with Cirsium arvense in organic cropping is an increasing problem in many parts of Europe. Non-chemical management strategies against C. arvense based on cultivation tactics and/or different cutting regimes have acquired very little attention for years. This study presents results from four experiments, undertaken under organic growing conditions, on the effects of repeated mowing or hoeing during the first part of the growing season used in combination with competition from a suppressive crop (grass white-clover mixture and red clover). The strategies were mainly aimed at diminishing the regenerative capacity of C. arvense and effects were thus measured in the subsequent year in spring barley. In general, number of passes of mowing and hoeing... |
