estimation of weed damage threshold is essensial in site-specific weed control programs. this experiment was conducted to determine the spatial distribution of weeds damage threshold in two wheat feilds. data related to weed biomass and crop yield were collected from sampling at 120 and 135 points of the first and second fields respectively based on a 4×4 m grid at research field of agricultura...

in order to investigate the effect of different weed-free and weed-infested periods on the growth indices of black seed, a field experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station of ferdowsi university of mashhad, during 2009-2010 growing season. the experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with 12 treatments and 3 replications. twelve experimental treatments cons...

abstract in order to investigate the freezing tolerance of field grown fennel (fueniculum vulgare mill) under controlled conditions, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted with three replications in agricultural college, ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2004. treatments were two fennel ecotypes (khorasan and kerman), two planting dates (oct 8th and 29th ) an...

In Armenia, Nymphaea alba only occurs in a small area NW of Stepanavan. It is restricted to small lakes with a minimum depth of c. 2–3 m because in shallower lakes it may be out-competed by Typha or Schoenoplectus species.

in order to study the effect of strip intercropping of maize (zea mays l.) and bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) on the dry matter yield and land equivalent ratio (ler) in weedy and weed free treatments, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural station of college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. treatments were strip width of 2, 3, 4 and 5 rows and sole cropping of each c...

abstract limited number of herbicides are used to control weeds in soybean, which has herbicides resistance in consequence, so cultural weed management can be used in order to evaluate the effect of planting dates of soybean cultivars on weed management an experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications and with strip plot arrangement in sari. two plan...

this experiment was conducted to study the effect of nozzle types and the time of herbicide incorporation in soil on weed control, using split plot design by randomized block design. the main plots were soil and herbicide mixing time and the subplots were nozzle types with three replications. this study was performed in karaj station of seed and plant improvement institute, located 25 km west o...

Site-specific weed management requires sensing of the actual weed infestation levels in agricultural fields to adapt the management accordingly. However, sophisticated sensor systems are not yet in wider practical use, since they are not easily available for the farmers and their handling as well as the management practice requires additional efforts. A new sensor-based weed detection method is...
