O = oilseed rape, W = wheat, B = barley, P = pea, s = sunflower; uppercase letters indicate winter crops, lowercase letters spring and summer crops; the latter were always preceded by temporary (“catch“) crops not indicated in the table.

2

The annual treatment frequency index (TFI) is the sum of all herbicide rates relative to the standard rate and relative to the whole field area (e.g. the TFI for the four management strategies of table 1 are 2, 2.5, 1.2 and 2.2, respectively).

3

Cumulated efficiency per year is the sum of all theoretical herbicide efficiencies at full rate (which corresponds to the actual efficiency in case of optimal spraying conditions).
