We have mustard that comes up around here along roads, in crop fields etc. I happen to grow alfalfa / grass hay for horses, so I don't want mustard in my fields. I actually hand pull the stuff I see every year and I have generally kept it out. But I have noticed other alfalfa fields in the area that will turn into a huge mustard population after 3-4 years. My theory is it may come as trash seed in some seed brands. Any thoughts on this? Many years ago I got a good dose of mustard in a grass hay field after I spread some horse manure that a boarder had tossed some old alfalfa into. So I know alfalfa & mustard go hand in hand.
