Worldwide there are 570 species of oxalis and approximately 30 species in Australia. Similar to some clover species oxalis can be initially overlooked. however, if left unmanaged the weed can become a serious issue for potato growers.
Oxalis spreads via seed or bulb depending on the species. Pictured below is a blub oxalis. These bulbs are easily spread during cultivation and harvest for potato crops.
This paddock walk will discuss the potential severity of the weed, some basic identification tips (oxalis vs clover and others) and gather some information on what has worked and what hasn't.
Light refreshments will be provided.
