Weed competes with crops for water, nutrients and light so weed infestation is one of the major threats to crop. Present investigation was aimed to asses the comparative efficacy of different herbicides for weed management in wheat crop under agro-climatic conditions of Pakistan. This experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) design with five replications. Different h...

paraquat herbicide weed control efficacy in stale seedbed practices was evaluated by split plots arrangement according to a randomized complete block design with three replications in lorestan province during 2009 and 2010. the common bean seed rate (in three levels: 100, 150 and 200 kg.ha-1) and weed management in seven levels (1. trifluralin ppi; 2. paraquat pre; 3. bentazon+acifluorfen post;...

ABSTRACT- This experiment was carried out during the growing seasons of 2010 and 2011 at the Agricultural Research Farm of Bu-Ali Sina University, to study the effect of weed competition on subsequent germination and seed vigour of chickpea. 12 weed interference durations were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Experiments consisted of two sets of treatment...

1. Introduction Analysis of variance is used to test for the real treatment differences. When the null hypothesis that all the treatment means are equal is not rejected, it may seem that no further questions need to be asked. However, in some experimental situations, it may be an oversimplification of the problem. For example, consider an experiment in rice weed control with 15 treatments viz. ...

to evaluate the competition between wheat and wild mustard (sinapis arvensis) in nitrogen and herbicide levels, an experiment was conducted in ramin agriculture and natural resources university, at 2007-8. a split-plots design in rcbd (randomized complete blocks design) with three replications was used for this experiment. the nitrogen levels (0, 60, 120 and 180kg/ha) arranged in main plots. ea...

Farming organic vegetable and crops have grown as a market desiring commodity. Weed control in farms has been costly and laborous and it has always been hard to achieve a proper weeding. A few chemicals are commonly applied in organic farming. Thermal weeding with flame burners seems a good solution; however, it has its own drawbacks, such as; damaging the main crops, low performance, being inf...

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...
