MSMA (monosodium methanearsonate) and DSMA (disodium methanearsonate) killed 27 to 90% of the broomsedge (Andropogon virginicusL.) plants when applied at 1.1 to 6.7 kg/ha in July. These rates did not reduce yields of smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermisLeyss.) or affect the density of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensisL.) growing in association with the broomsedge.

Dalapon (2,2-dichloropropionic acid), tebuthiuron {N-[5-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]-N,N′-dimethylurea}, and hexazinone [3-cyclohexyl-6-(dimethylamino)-1-methyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione] were evaluated for smutgrass [Sporobolus poiretii(R.&S.) Hitchc] control in bahiagrass (Paspalum notatumFlugge.) pastures. Dalapon and hexazinone provided the best smutgrass control but injured the bahiagrass. Forage treated with hexazinone at 1.7 kg/ha or less recovered within 6 months; however, the effects of the initial injury from dalapon at 2.2 kg/ha could be detected for as long as 2 yr after treatment. Dogfennel [Eupatorium capillifolium(Lam.) Small] and broomsedge (Andropogon virginicusL.) replaced smutgrass and bahiagrass removed by dalapon. Higher rates of tebuthiuron than hexazinone (3.4 vs. 1.1 kg/ha) were required to control smutgrass adequately.

Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb. ‘Kentucky 31′) drilled into a pasture infested with broomsedge (Andropogon virginicus L.) and fertilized with N, P, and K, eliminated broomsedge after 4 years. In a second experiment, fertilization with N, P, and K increased the density of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.), and broomsedge was gradually reduced over a 5-year period. Fertilization with P and K caused the density of legumes and grass to increase and broomsedge was nearly eliminated after 5 years. In both experiments the old growth of broomsedge was mowed each winter and cattle were then able to graze the new growth of broomsedge. Grazing may have aided in the elimination of broomsedge.
