  • Experiments were conducted in south Texas from 1983 to 1987 to evaluate clopyralid for huisache control using a carpeted roller. Huisache control with clopyralid applied as broadcast sprays or with a carpeted roller generally equaled that from the same rates of picloram or of 1:1 mixtures of clopyralid plus picloram. Applications of herbicides in the fall generally were more effective than in the spring, regardless of application method. In most cases, the herbicides at 48 to 60 g ae/L fall applied with a carpeted roller killed 70% or more of the huisache. Herbicide efficacy was not reduced when all huisache top growth was removed within 1 week after roller application of a 1:1 mixture of clopyralid and picloram at 60 g ae/L. The treat-and-cut sequence should improve the quality of hay from huisache-infested pastures.
