in order to reduce herbicide utilization, a 3-year field experiment was carried out with integration of mechanical and chemical weed control methods; in mechanical method, three types of blades (curred- bed knife, square- turn knife and sweep) were used. chemical control was done with chloridazon (wp 80%) and desmedipham (ec 15.7%) in two spraying sheme: once band sparying with 2 l h-1 & twice ...

ABSTRACT-Several herbicides are registered for selective weed control in sugar beet; however, no single chemical herbicide can control all weeds in beet fields. Frequently, two or more herbicides may have to be combined sequentially or as tank mixed to achieve adequate broad-spectrum weed control. In order to evaluate the effects of some combinations of broadleaf herbicides on sugar beet yield ...

The objective of this research was to evaluate the efficacy of various pre-emergence (PRE) and post-emergence (POST) herbicides for the control of volunteer adzuki bean (Vigna angularis (Willd.) Ohwi & Ohashi) in soybean (Glycine max L.). Trials were conducted at two locations in 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2009. Experiments were arranged in a randomized complete block design with either five PRE or ...

Most producers use herbicides to manage weed infestations. Generally, herbicides are applied at a uniform rate to the entire field. However, a uniform application may not be appropriate for all areas of a field. As precision agriculture technologies have developed, site-specific management of most agricultural inputs, including herbicides, has become feasible. Differentiated application of herb...

Registered dose of herbicides may be higher than rate required for controlling weed species depending on growth stages. In order to study the effect of individual post-emergence application of 2,4-D plus MCPA and three sulfonylurea herbicides at four- to six-true leaf stage of weeds, experiments were conducted in 2011 at the greenhouse of Agricultural Faculty of Ferdowsi University of Mashh...

introduction soil herbicides residue in agroecosystems is one of the important problems due to herbicides application. however herbicides residue in soil extend the period of weed control. nevertheless, it may persist longer than desired and injure subsequent crops in rotation. herbicides vary in their potential to persist in the soil. some herbicides such as sulfonylurea herbicides are very pe...

in order to investigate the effect of chemical herbicides on control of broad leaf weeds of common bean, an experiment was conducted in 2007 at yasouj with 12 treatments in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. treatments consisted of preplant application of trifluralin herbicide at 960 g ai ha-1; postemergence application of bentazon at 1200 g ai ha-1; imaztapir at 50, 75 and...
