/ .. / Field horsetail is a weed in crops of the world but is seldom the worst offender. It is probably toxic to surrounding vegetation due to high levels of alkaloids. Field horsetail increases after soil cultivation with or without the application of herbicides. It may be at least partially controlled by some herbicides. Field horsetail is sensitive to moisture stress; drought conditions result in a reduction in the production of new shoots. Repeated cultivation by hoeing reduces the number of mature shoots per acre. It is recommended that agricultural land infested with field horsetail be deep-plowed each season to prevent deep rhizome development; however, this will probably not be successful if the rhizomes have already penetrated below plow-depth / .. /
