Weed infestation of spring common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grown in monoculture depending on the cover crop and weed control method

Integrated Effect of Seed Rates and Weed Management Treatments in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Abstract: Increased crop density and use of herbicides are two important components of integrated weed management program in wheat but no much information is available on combined effects of these two treatments. A field experiment was conducted to determine the interaction effect of increasing seed rates and weed management treatments on monocot and dicot weeds, grain and straw yield and uptak...

Effect of tillage systems on weed infestation of durum wheat

Weed infestation of durum wheat was determined in the systems of conventional tillage(CT), reduced tillage (RT) and herbicide tillage (HT). Cultivations measures performed after theharvest of the previous crop included shallow ploughing (at a depth of 10-12 cm) and pre-winterploughing (25-30 cm) in the CT system; only field cultivation (10-15 cm) in the RT system; andspraying with glyphosate (R...

Structure of weed communities occurring in crop rotation and monoculture of cereals

A strict field experiment with crops sown in crop rotation and monoculture wascarried out in the years 1988-2012 at the Experimental Station Uhrusk belonging tothe University of Life Sciences in Lublin, south-eastern Poland. The study wasaimed at evaluating the structure of weed communities occurring in crop rotationand monoculture of cereals. The highest weed density m-2 was determined inthe s...
