The measured phytomasses (±SD) of barley crops with different contamination levels of rapeseed oil (RSO) and rapeseed oil methyl ester (RME) at the Koulutila and Rahkakorpi test sites. 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 RSO (Koulutila) RME (Koulutila) RSO (Rahkakorpi) RME (Rahkakorpi) Wet mass, grams 0.0, l m⁻² 0.5, l m⁻² 2.0, l m⁻² 0.5 liters per square meter and by 84% with a con- tamination level of 2.0 liters per square meter.	cache/afs-6015.pdf	txt/afs-6015.txt
