Fall tillage for wild oat seed germination control
Fall tillage should dry wild oat seeds and promote early germination. Freshly scattered seeds break dormancy under warm dry conditions for two to three weeks, while shallow, light tillage in fall aids germination before killing frost. Deep burial delays or prevents germination of the current crop.
