Abstract

A 7-foot V-plow was modified so herbicides could be sprayed beneath the soil surface in stubble mulch fallow operations. This permits the incorporation of volatile herbicides without destroying plant residues. Weed control is achieved by action of the 7-foot sweeps during the herbicide application and later by the incorporated herbicide.
