“…Convolvulus arvensis L. (field bindweed) (Orloff et al., 2018), Cuscuta campestris Yuncker (dodder) (Saric‐Krsmanovic et al., 2018), R. crispus (Iqbal et al., 2019), Sorghum halepense L. Pers. (johnson grass) (Peerzada et al., 2017) and Hordeum spontaneum L. (wild barley) (Hosseini et al., 2019) are common grassland weeds and they vary in seed characteristics, such as size, shape and hardness (Hogan & Phillips, 2011). As their seeds remain viable in dairy manure (Demirhan and Ozyazici, 2019; Liu et al, 2020; Rahimi et al., 2016), restrictions are often imposed when using organic fertiliser containing weed seeds (Mt & Schlather, 1994).…”
