Effect of vegetation control on the survival and growth of Scots pine and Norway spruce planted on former agricultural land

Jylha, P. and Hytonen, J. Canadian Journal of Forest Research 36(10):2400-2411. 2006.

The effects of competing vegetation and various weed control methods (fibreboard mulch, cover crop of clover, and various herbicides) on the survival and growth of Scots pine (Pima sylvestris L.) and Norway spruce (Piceaabies (L.) Karst.) seedlings were compared based on 6- to 11-year data from a field experiment established as a randomized block design with three replications in southern Finland.
