Sustainable pasture and grassland management promotes the photosynthetic growth of grass and its roots.

On several occasions forage grass seed lots of South American origin have been found to be contaminated with seeds of this weed.

Crops, such as rye and some grasses, are more susceptible to ergot infection because they are open-pollinated, allowing easy access of the fungus into the flowering head.

The “pull” part of the strategy utilizes fodder grass species, often vetiver (Chrysopogon zizanioides) or Brachiaria spp., as a border crop around the maize field to attract the adult moths.

The total value of forage grass seeds imported in 2008 from countries where Nassella trichotoma is present was 12% of total imports, for a value of $3.1 million (see Figure 3 and Appendix 9C).
