Use of efficient methods of weed control with as regards environmental sustainability as well as increased crop yield and also weed resistance to herbicides is essential. In order to, an experiment was conducted in 2012 in the Damavand jaban in Iran. Experiment treatments were compared in a split plot design by a randomized completely block design with 3 replication. The used variety of maize w...

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...

to study the effects of plant density and nitrogen rates on the ability of canola (regent  cobra; an inbred variety) to compete with weeds, an experiment was conducted as a factorial complete block design with four replications. the treatments included four levels of plant density at 150, 190, 230, and 270 plants m-2, and four levels of nitrogen (n) fertil-izer at 0, 46, 92, and 138 kg ha–1. r...

Today, planting winter cover crops to reduce herbicide is high considered. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of barley grass cover crop on control weed of flix weld (Descurainia Sophia). This experiment was conducted at agricultural farm of Rezvan Junior College in kerman provinces (latitude 25 55 / N, longitude 53 26 / E , altitude 1755m) from September 2010 to April 2011. A ...

Weed emergence models and weed population models have shown to be important tools for decision making. However, there have been no attempts to integrate a weed emergence model with a population dynamics model to build an improved model with increased predictive capacity. In this paper, a method of integrating both types of model is presented and an application building a mathematical model base...

Parthenium hysterophorus L., (Asteraceae) commonly known as parthenium weed, is a highly invasive plant that has become a problematic weed of pasture lands in Australia and many other countries around the world. For the management of this weed, an integrated approach comprising biological control and plant competition strategies was tested in southern central Queensland. Two competitive pasture...

a field study was conducted to determine the integration of split n fertilization and herbicide application on weed management and wheat (triticum aestivum l.) yield in shiraz, iran, in 2005/2006 and 2006/2007 growing seasons. the experimental design was split plot with four replications. main factors consisted of n timing and splitting, and sub plots included iodosulfuron–methyl–sodium plus me...

abstract in order to evaluate chemical control of bermudagrass (cynodon dactylon (l.) pers.) on mixture turf: (lolium perenne 20%,poa pratensis.20%,festuca arundinacea 20% and festuca rubra commutata 40%), an experiment was conducted during 2006 in tehran, using randomized complete block design with 4 replications and 11 treatments. treatments were diclpfop methyl at 900 and 1080 g a.i. ha-1, f...

Broad spectrum weed control is essential for successful lesquerella [Lesquerella fendleri (Gray) Wats., Brassicaceae] production. Weeds must be controlled during establishment and throughout the growing season. Lesquerella seedlings grow slowly following germination and emergence, and cannot compete well with most broadleaf and grass weeds. Weed competition is particularly critical prior to clo...
