Sorghum sudangrass as a summer cover and hay crop for organic fall cabbage production

TL;DR: The decline in DIBOA concentrations as rye matures, and the fact that many rye cultivars mature at different rates may help explain why estimates of weed suppression from allelopathic agents in rye have varied so widely in the literature. (via Semantic Scholar)
