In rice (Oryza sativa L.) culture the effect of puddling (wet tillage) on puddle quality, weed growth and yield of crop depends upon initial soil manipulations by pre-puddling tillage. However, the role of pre-puddling tillage on these aspects has not been studied adequately. These effects were studied for three years (1994±1996) in a ®eld experiment with a rice±wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cro...

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 ...

in order to evaluate the effects of crop cultivars and living mulchon sunflower yield and weed control, a field experiment was carried out as factorial arrangement based on a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2013. treatements were sunflower cultivars (‘azargol’, ‘allstar’, ‘farokh’) and weed control treatments (weed-free, weed-infestation and intercropping of fagopyru...

Field experiment was conducted at KPK Agricultural University, Peshawar, Pakistan to find out the effect of planting methods on the yield and yield components of maize varieties. Analysis of the data revealed that planting methods had a significant effect on days to tasseling, days to silking, plant height, number of plants ha at harvest, thousand grain weight, grain yield, biological yield, fr...

to determine the optimum weed management method and plant population density on chickpea yield, a split plot experiment based on rcbd with four replications was carried out at the university of tehran research farm (located in karaj) during 2010-2011. the main factor consisted of nine treatments including: 1. trifluralin pre-plant, 2. pendimethalin pre-plant, 3. complete weeding, 4. imazethapyr...

in order to determine the critical period of weed control (cpwc), yield and yield components of black seed (nigella sativa l.) affected by weed competition and control periods, a field experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with 12 treatments and three replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran in 2012. two sets of weed-in...

An experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Iran in 2012 to study the effect of intercropping of chickpea and Dragon’s head on yield, yield components and morphological traits of Dragon’s head as affected by four weed management time. The experiment was laid out in RCB design with three replications. Intercropping patterns included; a<su...

In order to study the effects of wild mustard competition and different levels of nitrogen on effective traits of wheat yield, this research was conducted in Ahvaz, south west of Iran. The study was consisted of a split plot experiment, on the basis of Randomized Complete Blocks Design with three replications. Different levels of nitrogen (90, 150 and 210 kgN.ha-1) were assigned in the main plo...
