A new publication on weed management in Christmas trees by Dr. Saha at Michigan State is available.
This publication provides good overview of traditional preemergence and postemergence weed control practices and options for Christmas tree production. However, it does not include ground cover suppression and management principles, which is an essential component of NC Fraser fir production. For information on chemical mowing (or vegetation suppression) in Fraser fir production see the ground cover management information on the NC Extension Christmas Tree Portal.
