P26—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, December 5,1981 PGC is recognized for hunter HARRISBURG The having one ot the best Pennsylvania Game hunter education Commission has again programs in the nation, been recognized for Each year the In- Leafy spreads across millions WASHINGTON, D.C. The U.S. Department of Agriculture is stepping up the war against leafy spurge, a weed that has marched across 3 million acres of north central and western range and cropland and threatens 3 million more acres. Even livestock and wild animals won’t eat the weed, which can cup land productivity 40 to 70 percent and spreads across land by sending out shoots from roots three feet deep, said Terry B. Kinney, acting administrator of USDA’s Agricultural Research Service. Kinney said today the effort to bring leafy spurge under control is being stepped up with J 200,000 in new funding. The money will go to land-grant universities m Wyoming, Montana and North Dakota for cooperative research on finding safe and economical control techniques. Kinney said leafy spurge has infested 3 million acres in north central and western states. Without adequate controls, he said, the weed will continue to crowd out forage plants and take rangeland out of use for livestock. If not halted, leafy spurge could spread over another 3 million acres in succeeding years «n Wyoming, Montana and North Dakota as well as in South Dakota, Nebraska, Idaho and neighboring states. Existing means of controlling the weed, Kinney said, are either inadequate or too costly. Leafy spurge has been difficult to suppress because it can grow new shoots from roots that penetrate as deep as three feet into the soil. Leafy spurge has been encroaching on north central and western rangeland and cropland for more than 25 years. Infested acreage has doubled each year. On cultivated land, however, the week can be controlled by tillage and cultivation prac tices, crop rotation and the use of selective herbicides m integrated weed management systems. Warren C Shaw, national program leader for weed research, Beltsville, Md., and D. Stuart Frear, agricultural chemical research leader in Fargo, N D , both of the Agricultural spurge of acres work with state scientists in coor dinating and evaluating the research. Agricultural ex periment stations in Montana State University, North Dakota State University and the University of Wyoming are cooperating in the $200,000 research project. Shaw said this latest research will be coor dinated with studies the Agricultural Research Service is undertaking to determine leafy spurge’s vulnerability to control strategies and the potential use of insects to suppress the damaging weed.
