Effect of weed competition periods on weeds and yield of black seed was studied through field experiments conducted at Agronomic Research Area, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad during winter 2006-07 and 2007-08. Weeds were allowed to compete with the crop for 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 days after sowing and throughout the growth season along with a weed free treatment. The data on weed density and...

introduction the lentil or masoor (lens culinaris l.) is a brushy annual plant of the legume family, grown for its lens-shaped seeds. lentil has been one of the first crops domesticated in the near east. with 26% protein, lentil is the vegetable with the highest level of protein other than soybeans, and it is an important part of people’s diet in many parts of the world. it is reported that the...

in order to investigate the effects of weeds interference on yield and yield components of different genotypes of common bean, an experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural research station of tabriz university, in 2011. the main plots were eight genotypes of different types of common bean including red bean, (cv. gho...

this study was undertaken to investigate the effect of long-term reduced tillage on grain yield, grain quality, and weed infestation of spring wheat. the experimental variables were three tillage systems: (a) conventional tillage (ct): shallow ploughing (10-12 cm) and harrowing after harvest of the previous crop, ploughing (25-30 cm) in the autumn; (b) reduced tillage (rt): only a cultivator (1...

in order to evaluation of relation between weed dynamic and utilization of nitrogen in weed as influence of integrated fertilizer management in different weed densities, a field experiment was carried out in experimental farm of agricultural faculty of shahid chamran university of ahvaz at 2011-2012 growing season. experimental design was based on a split-plot with three replications .main plot...

Ischaemum rugosum is a competitive weed in direct-seeded rice systems. Developing integrated weed management strategies that promote the suppression of weeds by crop density, cultivar selection, and nutrition requires better understanding of the extent to which rice interferes with the growth of this weed and how it responds to resource limitation due to rice interference. The growth of I. rugo...

Field experiments were conducted during the 2 year period from 2008 and 2009 to determine the effects of three seeding dates and seven weed control methods in DSR. The results suggested that seeding in the first week of July reduced weed density and biomass, increased kernel weight, leaf area index, and kernel yield compared to seeding rice in the first week of July. Amongst weed control method...

in order to evaluate competition among some weed species and canola, a field experiment in astan ghods razavi's field in mashhad was done on 2007-2008. thirty 50×50 cm quadrates were used in two times (stem and flower production) to measure the canola dry weight, leaf area index and canola and weeds density with destruction and thirty similar quadrates were used for counting weed species a...
