522:, but these are slow and costly to operate. The Official United States Standards for Grain states that when the spikelets get mixed in with the winter wheat, the wheat is considered contaminated and the grade is reduced, resulting in a penalty. The more jointed goatgrass found in the wheat, the lower the grade and the larger the penalty. The lowest penalty is $ 0.02 per bushel while the highest is $ 0.15 per bushel.

that this was annually increasing at a rate of about 20,000 hectares (49,000 acres). In 1986, jointed goatgrass had been reported as having infected less than 1% of winter wheat fields in seven counties in
Nebraska, yet it was rated one of the ten most troublesome weeds, concerning 13% of respondents to a 1984 farmer survey. Human activities, wind, and machinery help to spread jointed goatgrass seeds once the joints

514:. When the spikes shatter, the disjointed spikelets are cylindrical in shape and are easily mistaken for small pieces of winter wheat straw. Since the spikelets are similar in shape and size to winter wheat seeds, it is difficult to separate them from the wheat using conventional methods. Better methods use

This has resulted in a demand for other methods for controlling jointed goatgrass. These include planting only certified winter wheat seed that is free of jointed goatgrass, covering trucks that are transporting contaminated winter wheat, cleaning combines before moving them to a new field, allowing

in 1870 and later samples collected in 1910 showed that jointed goatgrass had escaped from experimental plots on South Dakota State
University campus at Brookings, SD. In 1999, it was reported that jointed goatgrass had infested an estimated 2,000,000 hectares (4,900,000 acres) in the US alone, and

Jointed goatgrass is a winter annual grass seed native to

can be used in winter wheat to improve its tolerance to environmental stresses, diseases and insects. Cattle in parts of the
Central Great Plains are able to graze on it as well as winter wheat, and jointed goatgrass can even be ground into feed for other animals.

Since jointed goatgrass and winter wheat are genetically related, there are no registered herbicides that can selectively kill off the jointed goatgrass without harming the winter wheat. However, Newhouse et al. looked at the development of an

Jointed goatgrass can reduce the yield of winter wheat by 25 – 50% which can cost US farmers up to $ 145 million. Another problem is that jointed goatgrass provides an overwinter home for winter wheat attacking pests such as

of jointed goatgrass and at a minimum of three different decision times (during the interval between winter wheat crops, before planting winter wheat, after planting but before winter wheat jointing, and before harvesting).
410:. It has been observed by growers and researchers that jointed goatgrass has a higher germination and emergence rate in compacted soils (such as in the wheel tracts of tractors) than in looser soils.
461:. Each spikelet holds one to two seeds, and in some cases three, that are reddish-brown in colour and reach maturity in mid-summer which is when the spikelets shatter. These seeds adhere to the
