Integrated Management of Downy Brome in Winter Wheat
PNW0668
August 2, 2020
Downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.), also known as cheatgrass, is especially troublesome in low precipitation production areas where crop rotations are mostly limited to winter wheat followed by a year of summer fallow. The invasive weed is best controlled with a combination of management tools to reduce a plant population to an acceptable level while preserving the quality of natural resources.
