Milkweed Fight Soon In Iowa Fields
About 75 percent of Iowa oatfields are infested with common milkweed spreading across farm ground. M H Burns of Iowa State College recommends early shallow fall plowing followed by winter wheat and then pasture, or August plowing if not turning to pasture, with surface cultivation preferred to avoid spreading roots. Hand pulling is impractical due to labor and new growth. The note adds brief agrarian insights on soil fertility and a tangential quote on politeness and debt.
