French term or phrase: labours reverdis
A text discussing the benefits of a herbicide states that the product has been approved for, among other things:

Labours reverdis et preparation du lit de semence.

I understand that this refers to ploughed land which has become covered with weeds since it was ploughed but I'm struggling to find a concise translation for it. Can anyone help?
