(b) Reduce to three feet from fields producing a Certified class of the same variety. In addition, each field pea field for certification must be isolated by three feet from small grain fields. To prevent mechanical field mixing of swathed field pea seed crop, the planting of small grain between field pea fields, except for the three feet of isolation, is recommended. (c) No Austrian winter pea or rye is permitted. For Austrian winter peas, no rye is permitted. (d) Prohibited, restricted, and other weeds difficult to separate must be controlled.
