Growing demand for local organic food has inspired new efforts to revive a staple element of the New England food system. Weed management is one of the foremost production related challenge for organic growers. The objective of this research was to determine the impact of spring wheat cultivar selection and planting date on weed biomass, Fusarium head blight incidence and grain yield and quality.
