Agriculture / herbicides
French term or phrase: pression d'enherbement
Bonjour,

Il s'agit d'un argumentaire de défense d'un herbicide bananiers.

Une plante de couverture nécessite 2 à 3 ans pour s’installer sur une parcelle et les parcelles au-delà du 1er fruit sont les situations de plus faible pression d’enherbement.
J'avais pensé à "grass growing" mais sans certitude.

Merci d'avance pour votre aide.
