Scentless chamomile a persistent weed challenge
Scentless chamomile infests fields in moist areas and edges, spreads by seed, resists common herbicides, and can persevere as summer or winter annual. A single plant yields up to half a million seeds, making management crucial inside and outside fields. A fourth annual Farm Family Seminar on estate planning is set for Nov 19 in Russell with Cal Bradley and Father Frank Franz.
