AlfaGraze 300RR planted in September 2006. Roundup was sprayed to
suppress grass competition just before planting alfalfa or just after
the alfalfa seedlings began to grow. By November the alfalfa was well
established and could be grazed for brief periods. Alfalfa that
was growing where the grass was not suppressed was less than half the
size of those growing without grass competition. Drill rows of
alfalfa are perpendicular to the strips sprayed with Roundup at 22
oz./acre.
