The Potential For Skeleton Weed, John Dodd, F. D. Panetta Jan 1987

The Potential For Skeleton Weed, John Dodd, F. D. Panetta

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

Since its introduction into Australia during the 900s skeleton weed has become one of the most economically significant weeds. Its presence in cereal crops in south-eastern Australia has caused suvere yield reductions and harvesting problems.

Skeleton weed was first found on a Western Australian farm in 963. Since then it has been the subject of an intensive eradication campaign organised by the Agricultural Protection Board and funded by an annual levy on wheat growers. Such campaigns, which rely mainly on volunteer searchers, do not exist in eastern Australia because the weed is so widespread it would be impossible to eradicate. …

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 68E5. Location paddock N1A on Esperance Downs Research Station (Gibson). Long term rotation trials.

Cleared in 1951 and sown to clover, cropped in 1961 and 1962 then Woogenellup sub clover and Brome grass were sown in 1963, topdressed until the start of the trial in 1968. Lupins were sown in trial in 1974. Esperance sub clover has been established on all plots.
