Persistence of Ladino Clover, Trifolium repens L.¹

Abstract

Synopsis Persistence of Ladino white clover as measured by percent ground cover was not affected by a high level of potassium fertilization, a winter mulch of wheat straw, reseeding practices, or an orchardgrass association when compared with optimum management practices but was improved by preplanting soil sterilizations and subsequent applications of soil and foliar insecticides throughout the 2l/2 years of the experiment.
