this experiment was arranged as a strip-plot on the base of a completely randomized block design with three replications to study the effect of tillage (whether in day or night or in day by light-proof cover) and application of reduced dosage of imazethapyr and trifluralin on weed control, yield and yield components of chickpea. main plots consisted of tillage methods and subplots consisted of ...

The objective of this study was to characterize anaerobic batch digestion of cattail weeds botanical fractions singly and in combination using American cockroach gut microorganisms as an inoculum. The effects of increasing concentration of cattail weeds expressed as percentage of total solids (TS) from 5, 15, to 30 and 60% on methane yield was investigated at ambient temperature of 29±1°C. The ...

field experiments were conducted in zanjan, markazi, esfahan, and chaharmahal va bakhtiari provinces to evaluate imazetapyr herbicide efficiency for weed control in common bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) in 2006. there were four replications at each site and treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block design. in zanjan, maximum weed biomass reduction by 91 and 88 percent were achieved ...

The mungbean production area is increasing in Australia due to increasing demand for the grain in Asian countries. However, the mungbean crop is generally grown with wide row spacing, and therefore, it is prone to heavy weed infestation which has a significant impact on the mungbean grain yield. Experiments were conducted in 2015 and 2016 to determine the row-spacing impact on crop yield and we...

Weeds are regarded as farmers' natural enemy. In order to avoid excessive pesticide residues, the destruction of ecological environment, and to guarantee the quality and safety of agricultural products, it is urgent to develop highly-efficient weed management methods. Amongst, weed discrimination is the key part. There have been a lot of researches on weed detection/discrimination using spectra...

Certified Crop Advisors of Arkansas and members of the Arkansas Crop Consultants Association were surveyed in fall 2006 through direct mail to assess current weed management practices and needs in rice from both a research and educational perspective. Consultants reported scouting 564,000 of the possible 1,400,000 acres (40%) of rice grown in Arkansas. Preemergence herbicides most often recomme...

in order to study effects of competitive weeds (sinapis arvensis, hordeum spp., secale montanum and agrostemma githago) on morphological traits, yield and harvest index of winter rapeseed (brassica napus l.) cultivars a factorial experiment was conducted in islamic azad university of tabriz, during 2007-2008. experimental factors were weeds controlling times included weeding in rosette (5-7 lea...
