Fall Application of Herbicides for Common Broomweed Control

Abstract

Common broomweed periodically infests large acreages of Texas rangeland. Spring applications of 1 lb of 2,4-D per acre is currently recommended for control. Fall (1972) applications of either 2,4,5-T low volatile ester, 2,4,5-T amine, or Tordon 225 Mixture applied to individual stumps of shredded honey mesquite trees concomitantly controlled common broomweed infestations during 1973.
