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...

The critical period for weed control (CPWC) is the period in the crop growth cycle during which weeds must be controlled to prevent unacceptable yield losses. Field studies were conducted in 2005 and 2006 in the University of Birjand at the south east of Iran to determine CPWC of corn using a randomized complete block design with 14 treatments and three replications. The treatments consisted of...

in order to determine the critical period of weed control (cpwc) in corn (zea mays l.), an experiment was carried out in a randomized complete blocks design with 14 treatments and three replications during 2013 growing season in the nahavand climatic conditions. two series of the treatments including weed-free and weed-infested were applied in the regular time distances of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 an...

Early age competition control has been reported to significantly improve the growth and yield of plantation grown loblolly pine. The objective of this paper is to understand the changes in wood properties: basal area weighted whole disk SG, earlywood SG (EWSG), latewood SG (LWSG) and latewood percent (LWP) of 14 year-old trees which received early age herbaceous and hardwood competition control...

Following si te preparation, three cultural t reatments and three open-poll inated loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) families were studied on a .gently sloping Beauregard silt loam in central Louisiana. The treatments were: (1) fertilization (either broadcast application of 177 kg N and 151 kg P/ha or none); (2) herbicide application (either broadcast application of herbicides during the first thr...

field experiments were conducted in zanjan, markazi, esfahan, and chaharmahal va bakhtiari provinces to evaluate imazetapyr herbicide efficiency for weed control in common bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) in 2006. there were four replications at each site and treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block design. in zanjan, maximum weed biomass reduction by 91 and 88 percent were achieved ...

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 ...

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...
