T 8 N, R 1 W; SWl/4 SE'A sect. 10.
Extensive flat fields on sandy soil, with center-pivot
irrigation. Adjacent fields now with very different weed
floras (Cerastium semidecandrum, Arenaria serpyllifolia,
vs. Descurainia sophia), due to different histories of
cultivation with Zea mays and Glycine max in the last year
or two.
Abundant, the dominant weed over 50 acres and giving the
field a gray-green appearance. Descurainia sophia (see no.
56287). dominant in an adjacent field, is absent here.
