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...

Cultural weed control practices such as narrow row spacing can be a key component of successful management. Experiments were conducted in the Kansas River Valley to evaluate interactions herbicide programs and corn spacings on grain yield. There no differences at site with low density. However, high Palmer amaranth density, Resicore applied 15- 30-inch rows Bicep + Acuron 15-inch resulted great...

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...

SUMMARY Simazine loss from soil to surface runoff water produce both a decrease in the effectiveness of the soil chemical treatment and a water quality hazard in receiving waters. Simazine has been found in 30% of wells sampled in Fresno and Tulare counties, California and some contamination has been attributed to simazine use in citrus orchards. Contamination of receiving water from herbicides...

If an herbicide application fails to control a targeted weed community sufficiently, farmers may try to eliminate surviving weeds with a follow-up application (hereafter ‘‘respray’’). Despite the implications of resprays on the spread of herbicideresistant weeds, respray frequencies and causal factors are poorly understood. A two-part survey of glyphosate-resistant soybean fields and custom app...
