Stale seedbeds are used by organic growers to reduce weed populations prior to crop planting. Ryemulches, derived from mechanically killed (rolled and crimped) winter rye cover crops, can serve the same purpose for spring-planted organic crops. Both methods can also be employed by conventional growers who face looming problems with herbicide resistant weeds. The objective of this research was t...

To assess the effect of non chemical management of weed control on forage Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) a field study was conducted in Varamin, Iran during 2010 crop year in a three- replicated- split factorial experiment laid out in randomized complete block design with four weeding levels (W1= one time cultivation at 3-leaf stage using a duck foot cultivator, W2<...

in order to evaluate the interference effect natural population weeds and plant density, an experiment with randomized complete block design in factorial arrangement with 4 replications was conducted in 2006 in a field experiment at ramin agricultural and natural resources university, khouzestan. treatments included two factor, plant density of corn at three levels (4, 7 and 10 plants m-2) and ...

The effect of tillage, crop establishment and weed management was studied on theperformance of wheat grown after soybean at New Delhi, India during 2010-11 to 2011-12.Sixteen treatment combinations involved 2 tillage, viz. conventional tillage (CT) and zero tillage(ZT), two crop establishment practices, viz. raised-bed and flat-bed and four weed management,viz. isoproturon + hand weeding, mesos...

introduction bean is one of the most important legumes worldwide for direct human consumption and is a rich source of protein and carbohydrates. bean is weak to compete with weed because of the retard growth at the early stages. therefore, weed control at this time plays an important role to gain high priduction. yield crop depends on weed number, and size after germination. weed control depend...

in order to compare of ecological management of weed control on economical income, yield and yield components of cotton (gossypium hirsutum l.), a randomized complete block design with 12 treatments and four replications was conducted in mahvelat of khorasan razavi province, iran. treatments consisted of weeding, harrowing, burning, two times weeding, weeding + harrowing, weeding + burning, har...

In order to determine the responses of morphological characteristics, yield and yield components of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) to plant density and weed interference duration, a factorial experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design with 3 replications at the Rice Research Institute of Iran (RRII) in Rasht, in the 2008 growing season. The factors comprised plant density a...

Objective: Field experiment was conducted in 2009 to investigate the effects of plant density and weed interference on morphological characteristics and yield of corn (Zea Mays, L.) at Research Station of University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran. Methods: The experiment was arranged as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. Plant density (D1, D2, D3 and D4: 5, 7...
