Disking
The area in the upper right was disked to break up the para grass rhizomes. Once the fragmented rhizomes began to resprout, one follow-up treatment was needed to reduce coverage to <5%.

Disked area showing the numerous rhizomes from para grass that were brought to the surface. Para grass bean resprouting from rhizome fragments within 8-12 days following disking.
