LPM 121: Fodder Production and Grassland Management (1+1)

WEEDING

• One or two weedings before 40^th day is required to have a good stand of cereal fodder.
• If weeding is not done, the crop will be suppressed by weeds and ultimately the green fodder yield gets reduced.
• Weed control using herbicide is not done usually because of the likely chance of residual toxicity to the animals through the green fodder.
