Soil solarization in various agricultural production systems
Soil solarization is a natural, hydrothermal process of disinfesting soil of plant pests that is accomplished through passive solar heating. Solarization occurs through a combination of physical, chemical, and biological mechanisms, and is compatible with many other disinfestation methods to provide integrated pest management. Commercially, it is used on a relatively small scale worldwide as a ...
متن کاملThe Role of Soil Solarization in India: How an Unnoticed Practice Could Support Pest Control
Plant protection represents one of the strategies to fill the yield gap and to achieve food security, a key topic for India development. Analysis of climate risks for crops indicates that South Asia is one of the regions most exposed to the adverse impact on many plants that are relevant to inhabitants exposed to food safety risks. Furthermore, accumulation of pesticide residues in the aquatic ...
متن کاملSolarization for nematode disinfestation of small volumes of soil.
Several polyethylene plastics were evaluated as potential materials for disinfesting small volumes of soil containing nematodes. Bursaphelenchus seani, cultured on the fungus Monilinia fructicola in petri dishes, was used to bioassay the survival and reproductive capability of nematodes buried 7.5 cm deep in Margate fine sand (soil moisture = 4.9%). The soil was exposed to sunlight for 6 days i...
متن کاملCombining effects of soil solarization and grafting on plant yield and soil-borne pathogens in cucumber
Combining effects of soil solarization and grafting on soilborne pathogens, plant height and yield in cucumber were compared in a greenhouse of Bati Akdeniz Agricultural Research Institute located in Antalya in 2008 fall season. The experiment was set in split plot design containing; 1, 2, 4 and 5 months soil solarization (MSS), and non-solarized control plots (NSC) on which grafted Maximus F1+...
متن کاملDesign and Fabrication of a Microwave Weed Killer Device for Weed Control Applications
In this paper, the design and the results of a microwave radiation system for agriculture applications is discussed. The system is fabricated and successfully tested on weed seeds. The device, which uses a commercial 1 kW magentron, proved to be effective for preventing the germination control of popular weeds of Iran. Seven weed species were tested separately by using this system and then the ...
