Abstract

Blue mustard is a serious weed in winter wheat and alfalfa in central and western Nebraska. This NebGuide discusses methods of control.

Blue mustard [Chorispora tenella (Pallas) D.C.] was introduced into the U.S. from Siberia in 1929 and was first reported in Lewiston, Idaho. It was identified in Keith County Nebraska in 1953.
