to investigate the efficiency of eradicane application, using herbigation as compared with conventional method (spraying), concerning weed biomass and density reduction and change in corn grain yield, a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design in 2006 at research fields of university of tehran (karaj). eradicane was applied at 4.5 (labeled rate), 3.15 or 5.85...

the objective followed in this study was to investigate the transport and degradation of herbicides under different herbigation vs. conventional spraying systems in soil. metribuzin and potassium bromide (kbr) were applied in soil plots by four application methods, including conventional spraying without delay in initial irrigation (cs1), conventional spraying with an initial 24-h delay in irri...

Broomrapes are plant-parasitic weeds which constitute one of the most difficult-to-control of all biotic constraints that affect crops in Mediterranean, central and eastern Europe, and Asia. Due to their physical and metabolic overlap with the crop, their underground parasitism, their achlorophyllous nature, and hardly destructible seed bank, broomrape weeds are usually not controlled by manage...

to study the effects of integration of mechanical control with herbicides on yield and yield components of soybean (glycine max) a field experiment was conducted during 2003-2004 at the research farm of agronomy department, agriculture campus of tehran university, karaj. a randomized complete block design (rcbd) of 18 treatments was applied, each treatment being replicated 3 times. treatments i...
