A distant relative of wheat it
gaining attention aa a problem
for Columbia Basin grain gro
wers, according to an Oregon
State University scientist.
"Cheatgrass, wild oats and
annual ryegrass tuuhe a lol more
damage, Rut we have chemical
controls for them. Goatgrass Is
now our number one unsolved
weed problem, and It is a growing
concern," said Don Hydrych. an
agronomist at OSU'a Columbia
Basin Agricultural Research
Center at Pendleton who is get
ting $111,000 this year from the
Oregon Wheat Commission to
study the weed.
"A post emergence herbicide
works on cheatgrass. Hut goat
grass is so similar to wheat the
chemicals that kill it kill wheat,
too." said the researcher, ex
plaining why the goatgrass
problem is hard to solve. Goat
grass is so genetically similar to
wheat that on rare occasions it
crosses with the grain in Oregon
fields, producing a sterile, hybrid
plant, he noted.
Contamination and competition
is how goatgrass inflicts eco
nomic damage.
"If there's too much in wheat
the grower can be docked up to 20
cents a bushel by buyers at the
grain terminal." said Rydrych.
Also, it is "almost impossible"
to separate goatgrass kernels
from wheat kernels so w heat seed
can be certified as pure, he said.
In the field, goatgrass com
petes with wheat for moisture
and nutrients, the researcher
said.
Economic damage figures are
not available, Rydrych said.
"But our estimate now is that
we have, In spot infestations,
probably I00.0OO acres in this
area " he said, explaining that if
goatgrass is In a field or along the
edge, the entire field is consi
dered infested.
Goatgrass is spread by com
bines moving from field to field,
residue blowing from grain
trucks, farmers planting contam
inated wheat seed and. possibly, j
trucks transrting wheat straw
to be used as livestock bedding,
the researcher .Raid.
Without selective chemical
controls, farmers must combat
the weed with cultural practices
such as isolating it in fields or
along their edges, killing wheat
and goatgrass in the isolated
area, and leaving the area fallow
for three years - an expensive
procedure
Rydrych is testing how various
rhemicals affect the weed in
wheat plots he plants each season
at the Pendleton research sta
tion. He purposely contaminates
the plots with goatgrass.

There were 46 buyers and 89 consignors represented at
Thursday's market.
MARKET TREND: Good quality cattle brought all the
traffic would bear with them holding steady with last week's
prices. Singles, blemished, and full cattle were discounted
heavily. Cows were selling stronger for commercial and
utility grades although the market is actually on a downward
trend for cows, due in part to the unknown effects of the new
dairy program that the government is initiating.
NEXT SALE: Thursday, November 3rd. This sale will
have a good run of premium quality calves with a number of

Dear Friends:
Nearly a year ago the Ble
vins family was saddened by
Terry's death. Three months
later another shock, the loss of
E.V.'s leg. There is no word
for the helpless feeling the
family was faced with. No
insurance. Doctor bills and
hospital bills had already oc
curred. Friends, organiza
tions, churches and persons
held fund raising events. Our
community and the eommun-
ity of Ukiah and Dale have
been most generous in sharing
and caring. We shall always
remember their kindness. We
know many have been faced
with illness and tragedies with
deep sincerity, we say thanks
to all.
