- W2240539427 abstract "Creeping grasses are considered the most costly weeds in the South African sugar industry, drastically reducing yields and, in extreme cases, even killing the sugarcane crop. Cynodon dactylon commonly encroaches into fields from surrounding areas, e.g. cane breaks and roadsides, requiring frequent and costly encroachment control. Measures for controlling the weed involve mechanical mowing and/or repeated chemical treatment with glyphosate, paraquat plus diuron, and imazapyr. An innovative solution may involve planting of a noninvasive, strongly aromatic tufted grass, Melinis minutiflora. In previous work in habitat management field trials against Eldana saccharina, a potential added benefit of this grass was the observed strongly competitive interaction between it and C. dactylon, especially where a M. minutiflora ‘barrier hedge’ was planted on field margins. Following this, more detailed work involved comparing biomass of these two grass species where they occurred together. In trials at Port Shepstone and Mount Edgecombe, results indicated that biomass of C. dactylon was severely or completely suppressed under M. minutiflora, which had formed an effective barrier against this weed and prevented encroachment into the field. M. minutiflora, in return, did not encroach into the adjacent sugarcane. Recommendations are being formulated to include using M. minutiflora as part of an integrated strategy to better manage C. dactylon." @default.
