The weed is an increasing problem, competing with wheat during the early growth of the crop; densities as low as 7 plants per sq m can reduce yields by 10 percent. It can be controlled effectively in cereal crops but to obtain long-lasting suppression seed production must be prevented and the existing seed load in the soil destroyed; cultural and chemical means are discussed.
