The article discusses cultural methods to suppress wild oats before seeding and compares them with chemical controls. Avedex can be soil incorporated before seeding this fall or next spring and will kill oats. Carbyne can be sprayed in spring at the two or three leaf stage. Chemicals cost money, so cultural control should be attempted first.
Weed specialist Don Webster of the Provincial Department of Agriculture explains that fall tillage can help control wild oats if weather turns favorable. Cold moist conditions may hinder control, as ripe seeds must reabsorb moisture after a dormancy period before germination can resume. Germination chances rise with time after maturity, reaching up to about 80 percent by the following spring and the second spring after maturity.
