Muriel Vasconcellos Jul 4, 2020:
@ pest I mis-spoke when I wrote "pest" in my comment. I don't see it as a weed of the kind that would affect a crop (much less a disease or a critter).
philgoddard Jul 4, 2020:
One other thing I think there's a mistake in the Spanish, and it confused me at first. It says "plagas y enfermedades... tales como milhojas". It's not a pest or a disease, it's a weed.
Rachel Fell Jul 2, 2020:
In the UK at least, yarrow is a wild plant of hedgerows etc. I can imagine another plant may be meant here.
Manuel Aburto (asker) Jul 2, 2020:
Yes!
I mean, I am 100% with Muriel, the document refers to agricultural pests, and not to ornamental plants.
Muriel Vasconcellos Jul 2, 2020:
Yarrow Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) is typically a garden plant. It has spreading roots that can become a problem in a garden, but I don't see it as an agricultural pest. I'm more in favor of Helena's suggestion under References.

Hoy en día se realiza el Manejo Integrado de Arvenses. Este manejo como su nombre lo indica, comprende la integración de varias prácticas de control para mantener a las malezas en un punto en que no compitan con el cultivo. No se trata de hacerlas desaparecer, ya que esta es una práctica antiecológica.

9.5 Oreja de ratón, mil hojas (Cerastium glomeratum)

Se puede concluir que las dosis de Paraquat que generan un control son a 4,5 cm3/cama siendo la bolsa de pastor y la oreja de ratón las malezas que son controladas a esta dosis, y 9 cm3/cama siendo el trébol y el kiek las malezas que se controlan a esta dosis, la dosis más alta es la que ejerce control sobre todo el tipo de arvenses encontradas en la compañía. Según la especie de maleza que se encuentre en el lote que se desee aplicar se recomienda usar la dosis de Paraquat. Para el glifosato se recomienda ensayar dosis más altas junto con el uso de pantallas protectoras para evitar posibles daños en el cultivo de interés.
