this experiment was carried out at the research farm of faculty of agriculture, university of zanjan in spring of 2012 to introduce an integrated weed management method in fennel. treatments were type of herbicide (trifluralin and pendimethalin), application dose (recommend dose in other crop (r), 75 percent r, 50 percent r, and 0 percent r) and supplemental control (none, one hand-weeding at 5...

A literature study was undertaken on the weeding of maize on smallholder farms in Ciskei, South Africa. Most weeding under these conditions is carried out by hand pulling or hand hoeing. Only limited use is made of animal traction, and large-scale development of this method will not be possible until the conventional broadcast method of planting maize has been replaced by row planting.

a field experiment was conducted in research farm of isfahan university of technology, isfahan, iran in 2011 . various weeding periods were investigated on growth and yield of potato under drip tape and furrow irrigation systems. a split plot arrangement was used in a randomized complete block design with three replications. irrigation treatments were included in main plots and periods of weed ...

this experiment was conducted to determine the effect of competition between common weed in chickpea’s form in kermanshah and chickpea (cicer arietinum). it was carried out in sararood experimental station in kermanshah province in 2000. split plot factorial was considered as an experimental design that had four replications. the weeding was main factor with two different levels (whole season w...

Currently, economic, agronomic and environmental concerns lead to reduce the use of herbicides. Mechanical weeding can help to reach this objective. Dynamics and biology of wild chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.) populations were assessed as well as dynamic of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) for four level of application of a weeder-harrow (0, 1, 2, 3 treatment(s)). After each treatment, ...

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...

Weed infestations and associated yield losses require effective weed control measures in soybean and sugar beet. Besides chemical weed control, mechanical weeding plays an important role in integrated weed management systems. Field experiments were conducted at three locations for soybean in 2013 and 2014 and at four locations for sugar beet in 2014 to investigate if automatic steering technolo...

The study was carried out at Lamahi-8, Satbariya, Dang to evaluate the effect of different weed management practices on production spring maize. experiment in a Randomized Complete Block Design using three replications and seven treatments. Rampur hybrid 10 variety early post emergence (EPoE) herbicide were used experiment. treatment consisted single as well combined methods T1: Broadcasting-On...

Increasing productivity per unit area, hence closing the yield gap, is key to meeting cereal demand in sub-Saharan Africa. We assessed, with 114 farmers, contribution of recommended agronomic practices (RAP) or without NPK fertilization on gaps, and options intensify productivity. Treatments included farmers’ practice (FP) as control, RAP NPK, farmer-selected best geared towards intensification...

Rice seedlings and weeds emerge concurrently in direct-seeded rice (DSR) production systems, while there is no flooding water to inhibit weed germination, emergence development at crop emergence. Because of this, are considered the biggest living barrier DSR significantly reduce yield. The purpose research was devise an approach for management cultivated under various agroecosystems, optimizing...
