There has been a marked increase in the use of herbicides in potato production. In many cases growers have simply added herbicides to their existing weed control program with little or no reduction in tillage. On Long Island six or more separate mechanical operations may be used by growers to control weeds. The current paper summarizes 3 years’ results with various tillage — herbicide combinations carried out under widely varying levels of weed infestation. Under conditions of low to moderate infestation good results were obtained with one to two tillage passes plus the use of an herbicide. The use of an incorporated herbicide such as EPTC plus a single hilling operation as early as ground-brack was satisfactory. Greening of tubers was not appreciably increased by this or other early hilling practices. Fields with severe weed infestations required two to three tillage treatments plus an herbicide application. No yield reduction occurred from these treatments, with some indication of a trend in the opposite direction.  相似文献

Invasion by undesirable plants, such as Cirsium arvense, can constrain attempts to conserve and restore biodiversity in extensively managed temperate grasslands, but control with herbicides can cause environmental harm. We contrasted herbicides with more environmentally sustainable weed control strategies. Six‐year, large‐scale randomized block experiments were established to determine optimum combinations of grazing management and mechanical or herbicide treatments to control thistles within lowland and upland grazing systems. Factorial combinations of tight vs. lenient grazing in spring and autumn with additional treatments of winter grazing were compared. Thistle control methods were applied in sub‐treatments for the first 2 years: cutting twice yearly, herbicide wiping, and cutting followed by herbicide application. Thistle abundance decreased under lenient grazing in spring, autumn and winter at the lowland site, under lenient spring and winter grazing in the uplands and under cattle compared with sheep grazing. Herbicide wiping was the most effective control measure and cutting the least, but effects of all weed control sub‐treatments were lost rapidly, so lenient grazing was sufficient to give long‐term thistle control. Lenient grazing and herbicide wiping also caused small declines in non‐target forb diversity. Control of creeping thistle can therefore be achieved without herbicides because lenient grazing in spring and autumn can decrease thistle populations to sufficiently low levels. Severe infestations can be more rapidly controlled using herbicides, but are better avoided at botanically diverse sites. Ecologically‐based weed control strategies have great potential, but require well designed field experiments, which run for sufficiently long periods to allow community‐level impacts to develop.  相似文献

Abstract

Selecting effective weed management options requires biological, ecological, and economic information. This study compared model-based to standard-herbicide weed control in a corn (Zea mays L.)/soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] rotation that had a long-term history of different tillage and weed management practices. The model integrates weed population dynamics, herbicide efficacies, and economic information to evaluate preplant incorporated (PPI) or preemergence (PRE) weed control options based on weed seed bank size and postem-ergence (POST) strategies based on weed seedling densities. There were fewer weeds in standard-herbicide compared with model-based treatments. No-tillage had the greatest numbers of weeds 3 out of 4 years. Soybean yield was reduced the first year of the study in several treatments receiving model-based weed control and the third year in all model-based treatments. Corn yields were greatest in reduced tillage. Resuits of using model recommendations to control weeds were mixed, with PRE recommendations being insensitive to a common cocklebur (Xan-thium strumarium L.) infestation. Our conclusions agree with those of others that the nature of the weed pressure may be a prevailing influence on the outcome of using weed control recommendations of bioeconomic models.  相似文献

In India, dry-seeded rice (DSR) production systems are rapidly replacing conventional rice production systems due to various advantages. DSR systems can be managed under zero-till (ZT) conditions or after a preparatory tillage, often referred to as conventional tillage systems (CONT). Although previous reports indicate the contribution of tillage to weed suppression, the effect of one-time preparatory tillage in a DSR system could vary depending on the dominant weeds in the system, vertical seed distribution and the weed seed dynamics. A study was conducted to test the efficacy of ZT and CONT and their interaction with herbicide treatments on the weed population dynamics and rice grain yield in 2010 and 2011. Tillage systems did not affect weed emergence, weed biomass, tiller production and crop yield. However, herbicide treatments varied in their efficacy on individual weeds. Hand-weeding treatments and pendimethalin combined with hand weeding did not effectively control Cyperus rotundus L. and Panicum maximum Jacq. (a perennial grass weed with underground parts). The herbicide combination of metsulfuron and chlorimuron was effective in controlling C. rotundus but not grass weeds. This indicates the need for sequential applications of herbicides for grass weed control or integration of hand weeding to achieve broad-spectrum weed control. Apart from hand weeding (three times), treatment with penoxsulam–cyhalofop and pendimethalin followed by (fb) hand weeding resulted in low weed density, high tiller production and grain yield. The study clearly indicates that tillage does not always lead to weed suppression compared with ZT, and herbicides must be chosen based on the dominant weeds in a system. The results of this study are pertinent as herbicide-resistant weeds are rapidly evolving under continuous herbicide selection pressure, which warrants studies on enhancing productivity through low-input, environmentally friendly and sustainable production technology.  相似文献

Limited information is available on control of broadleaf weeds in barley and response of barley cultivars to herbicides. Field experiments were conducted from 2007 to 2009 to evaluate post-emergence herbicides for control of broadleaf weeds in four barley cultivars. Herbicide treatments included 2,4-D sodium salt at 500 g ai ha−1, carfentrazone-ethyl at three rates (15, 20 and 25 g ai ha−1), and metsulfuron-methyl at 4 and 5 g ai ha−1. The results suggested that density of broadleaf weeds was not affected by barley cultivars in 2007 and 2008, but it was influenced in 2009. Application of carfentrazone-ethyl or metsulfuron-methyl at all the rates was effective to reduce density and biomass of broadleaf weeds in all the years. A variable response was observed for yield attributes among barley cultivars. Barley grain yield was similar in all barley cultivars in 2007; however, higher yield was recorded in ‘DWRUB 52’ in 2008 and 2009 compared to other cultivars. All herbicide treatments were usually effective to secure higher barley yields in all the years and there was a significant interaction between barley cultivars and weed management treatments. Hand hoeing was not as effective as herbicide treatments to reduce density and biomass of broadleaf weeds; however, barley yield was usually comparable with herbicide treatments. Results also revealed that there was no significant herbicide injury on any barley cultivar during three year experiments. It is concluded that carfentrazone-ethyl and metsulfuron-methyl are additional tools for broadleaf weed control in barley. However, more research is required to evaluate efficacy of these herbicides as a tank mix partner that may increase weed control spectrum in barley.  相似文献

Weed management is among the main factors limiting cultivation of castor (Ricinus communis) in extensive fields, particularly when labor is scarce or expensive. This experiment evaluated the efficiency of weed management programs using preemergence (clomazone, pendimethalin, and trifluralin) and a postemergence herbicide (chlorimuron-ethyl) applied at 20 days after emergence in castor plants cv. BRS Energia under rainfed conditions in Apodi, Brazil. No phytotoxicity was observed on the castor plants, and the postemergence herbicide significantly increased castor seed yield to 1466 kg ha−1 complementing the weed control of preemergence herbicides treatments in which seed yield was 1207 kg ha−1. Seed yield on weedy and weed-free treatments was 760 and 1971 kg ha−1, respectively. Weeds were kept under a satisfactory control up to 40 days after emergence. This program resulted in reasonable weed control because the preemergence herbicides controled monocotyledon weeds, while the postemergence herbicide controlled broad leafed species being selective to castor plants.  相似文献

Lolium rigidum is the most prevalent and damaging grass weed of winter cereals in Spain. L. rigidum infestations are frequently treated with herbicides and, consequently, populations have evolved resistance. The objective of this study was to determine the extent and frequency of herbicide resistance in L. rigidum populations in Spain to the selective herbicides chlortoluron, diclofop-methyl and chlorsulfuron, commonly used for its control in-crop, and to glyphosate. The response to these herbicides was evaluated on 123 accessions surveyed randomly across cereal cropping areas of the regions of Castile and León, Catalonia and Andalusia. The fresh weight and the frequency of undamaged plants were calculated for each accession and herbicide. At the regional level, higher frequencies of accessions displaying resistance occurred in Catalonia, an intensively cropped region with a greater herbicide selection pressure. Of concern is that in this region the 60% of the accessions displayed some level of resistance to the ALS-inhibiting herbicide chlorsulfuron. The 6.9% of the accessions found in Castile and León with some resistance to glyphosate could also indicate an incipient problem of resistance to this herbicide. For the other herbicides and regions the majority of the accessions remained susceptible. The possible mechanisms of herbicide resistance development in L. rigidum accessions (target-site versus non-target-site resistance) and their variation among regions was discussed. This study can be used to generate herbicide resistance-management schemes for farmers, based upon the herbicide the site and the potential for resistance development.  相似文献

This study was conducted to assess the herbicide savings and the cost efficiency of site-specific herbicide application strategies in comparison with other strategies based on uniform application of herbicides throughout the whole field. The specific situation considered was Sorghum halepense infested maize fields in Spain. The results from a theoretical economic model were contrasted with the information derived from a S. halepense survey conducted in 37 commercial maize fields distributed over three Spanish maize production areas. Seven application strategies were simulated: 1) no herbicide; 2) overall full-rate; 3) overall half-rate; 4) and 5) site-specific spraying infested cells with full- and half-rate, respectively; 6) and 7) site-specific spraying infested cells plus adjacent buffer areas with full- and half-rate, respectively. The simulation results showed that site-specific weed management was the most profitable strategy when S. halepense infested area ranged between 6.5 and 18.7%. This scenario was present in 22% of the surveyed fields. In fields with less than 6.5% infestation (a situation present in 51% of the surveyed fields), yield losses were slight and the most profitable strategy was using no herbicide. When the infested area ranged between 18.7 and 40.8% (19% of the surveyed fields), no significant differences were observed between the net benefits of the various strategies. Full rate herbicide applications throughout the entire field resulted in the highest net returns in fields with more than 40.8% weed infestation (8% of the surveyed fields). In these cases, the added costs of weed detection, mapping and site-specific herbicide application were not justified by the herbicide savings obtained. Likewise, herbicide savings obtained with the various strategies depended on the proportion of the field infested. Considering the high difference between site-specific treatments and uniform application of herbicides when the infested area ranged between 18.7 and 40.8%, and that no significant differences in net returns were observed in this range, site-specific treatments should be preferred. Adding a buffer area to the site-specific treatments does not seem a suitable strategy due to the considerable increases in costs and reductions in herbicide savings.  相似文献

Field trials were conducted at Samaru in the northern Guinea and at Bakuta and Kadawa in the Sudan Savanna ecological zones of Nigeria to identify suitable herbicides for weed control in irrigated onion. The herbicides tested were chlorthal-dimethyl, fluorodifen and oxadiazon. In the trials each herbicide treatment was compared with an identical treatment which received supplementary hand-weeding. The results of these experiments show that oxadiazon at 1·0–2·0 kg a.i./ha, with or without supplementary hoe-weeding at 6 weeks after transplanting, combined effective weed control with high bulb yields in irrigated dry season onions. While fluorodifen at 1·5 kg a.i./ha followed by supplementary hoe-weeding may be effective at sites with low weed infestation, a higher rate (3·0 kg/ha) may be desirable at sites with a higher broad-leaved weed infestation. Chlorthaldimethyl at 10·0 kg a.i./ha effectively controlled weeds at all the sites and gave high onion yields at sites with 6–12% clay; the selectivity was, however, lower at Bakura with very light soil. Uncontrolled weed growth caused 49–86% reduction in the bulb yields compared with the best herbicide treatments.  相似文献

Four herbicides, monthly handweeding and a 15 cm deep straw mulch were evaluated for weed control during 1982 to 1987 on rhubarb (Rheum rhabarbarum L. ≡ R. rhaponticum L. ‘Victoria Red’). The straw-mulched plots produced larger plants, provided higher yields and had fewer weeds than all other treatments during the five years of these field trials. Yields in 1987 were 29·42, 17·65 and 13·06 tonnes/hectare for straw, handweeded and herbicide treatments, respectively. Monthly handweeding produced large plants and high yields, but required much more hand labour than mulching, making straw mulch the most cost-effective treatment. The four herbicides evaluated (glyphosate, fluazifop, sethoxydim and propyzamide) provided weed control for up to 1 month and would require reapplication during the growing season.  相似文献

Fennel has been widely used in traditional medicine for their antimicrobial effects. Since fennel is long duration crop and have slow initial growth, it protection from weed is essential. Experiments were conducted for two consecutive seasons to evaluate the efficacy of soil-applied herbicides at the reduced rates in combination with physical control for weed management and optimizing the yield of fennel. Treatments were type of herbicide (trifluralin and pendimethalin), application dose (recommend dose (R), 75% R, 50% R, and 0% R) and physical weed control (none, one hand-weeding at 50 day after planting (DAP), wheat straw mulch). Weed-free control treatment was also included in each year. The results showed that the use of soil-applied herbicides resulted in reduced weed biomass but did not provide season long weed control without an additional physical control. In both seasons, pendimethalin provided better weeds control than trifluralin. Reduced herbicide rates were found to be more effective when herbicides application followed by hand-weeding than when were used alone or combined with mulch. Experimental results also showed that one time increasing in herbicide rates increased seed yield by 17.5 and 7.5% in 2012 and 16.5 and 6.3% in 2013, when one hand-weeding and mulching were used as supplemental control, respectively. Overall, the 75% of the labeled recommended rate of herbicides followed by one hand-weeding at 50 DAP produced consistently high yields and less weed biomass, reflecting both superior weed control and crop safety.  相似文献

A bioeconomic model is described and used to investigate the agronomic and economic consequences of using a range of management strategies for the control of winter wild oats (Avena sterilis L.) in cereal cropping systems representative of central Spain. The results of simulations indicated that growing winter wheat continuously with the annual application of herbicides may be the optimum strategy, resulting in acceptable wild oat populations and maximum economic benefits. However, the practice of wheat monoculture was only a valid option as long as herbicides were applied annually: spraying herbicides in alternate years failed to control wild oats adequately and resulted in major economic losses. The rotation of wheat with a fallow year, with no herbicides applied in either of the two years, may be a satisfactory low-cost alternative when wild oat infestation levels are low, but it is not valid when infestation levels are high. The strategy that combines the use of a fallow year with herbicide application in the wheat year resulted in optimum wild oat control and moderate profitability under all conditions. However, the net returns obtained were substantially lower than in the continuous wheat plus herbicide strategy. The sensitivity of the model to variation in various key parameters was tested: wheat yield level and fixed costs were the two parameters that had the largest effect on model output. In general, the effect of changing parameter values was more pronounced in continuous wheat systems than in wheat-fallow rotations  相似文献

Increasing environmental and economic concerns have resulted in considering the potential for the successful use of herbicides at lower doses within an integrated approach to weed management. Therefore, field experiments were carried out to evaluate the efficiency of mesosulfuron-methyl and clodinafop-propargyl dose to control Lolium perenne in pure stand and in mixture with wheat. The herbicides at 5 different doses were assigned in a factorial arrangement (subplots) within planting systems (mainplots). L. perenne biomass was totally different in pure stand and in mixed planting system, irrespective of the herbicide effect. More than 3-fold decrease was caused in the L. perenne biomass by the presence of wheat. Mesosulfuron-methyl was more potent than clodinafop-propargyl in the L. perenne control. Mixed planting enhanced the herbicide performance, increasing the relative potency value of mesosulfuron-methyl. The wheat grain yield received no additional benefit from applying mesosulfuron-methyl at the full recommended dose rather than at half dose. This study demonstrates that L. perenne suppression involving sub-lethal herbicide dose is associated with the wheat competitiveness. Combining competitive cropping systems with reduced herbicide could be an approach to reducing weed populations over time with lower crop production costs.  相似文献

Abstract

In row crops of the North American Corn Belt two important forms of postplant mechanical weed control are rotary hoeing and inter-row cultivation. Unfortunately, the efficacies of these two control technologies are variable, which leads to high levels of economic risk. We hypothesized that efficacies and profitability of rotary hoeing and inter-row cultivation would increase, and risk would decrease, if the timing of control was based more on weed emergence times, than on rule-of-thumb calendar dates. Field research was conducted in soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) for two years in Minnesota wherein four dates of rotary hoeing and three dates of inter-row cultivation, alone or supplemented by grass or broadleaf herbicides, were examined for weed control, crop yield, and net returns. Results indicate that timing influences the efficacy of mechanical control operations, but blanket optimal calendar windows that are generally applicable cannot be established, as such decisions may be location-specific and/or time-dependent. In contrast, efficacies appear more consistent if emergence percentages are used to decide the time of mechanical operations, e.g., rotary hoe at 30% and cultivate at 60% green foxtail (Setaria viridis [L.] Beauv.) emergence. The results also suggest that while it is possible for exclusive mechanical weed control to be optimal in some instances, consistently profitable weed control strategies will inevitably involve some herbicide usage.  相似文献

Sunn hemp is a tropical, herbaceous annual legume that has potential as a cover crop during the summer in temperate climates. Due to the recent increased interest in sunn hemp breeding and seed production for temperate climates, there is a need for weed control in sunn hemp production. No herbicide product currently on the market specifically identifies sunn hemp as a tolerant crop. The aims of this research were 1) to evaluate herbicides with the intent of identifying a herbicide program that can assure near weed free sunn hemp intended for seed harvest and 2) to demonstrate and quantify sunn hemp-weed suppression. Pre-emergence applied treatments consisted of pendimethalin alone, imazethapyr alone, and pendimethalin plus imazethapyr. Pendimethalin alone provided consistent effective weed control and maximum sunn hemp biomass, but when yellow nutsedge was present, imazethapyr was required for effective control and greater sunn hemp biomass. The combination of pendimethalin and imazethapyr was detrimental to sunn hemp biomass yield. Results also established that sunn hemp is tolerant of 2,4-DB applied post-emergence, but was not necessary for weed control in these studies because of the lack of broadleaf weed pressure. In a separate study with variable sunn hemp densities, weed biomass reductions of ≥50% were obtained with sunn hemp densities of only 20 to 50 plants m−2. This degree of weed suppression obtained from relatively modest sunn hemp densities is likely indicative of the ability of sunn hemp to grow faster and taller than other plants.  相似文献

An experiment was conducted to examine integrated weed-control techniques for machine-transplanted lowland rice in Korea. Six treatments combining tillage, water and herbicide regimes were compared in a single field trial in 1981. The dissimilarity coefficient (reflecting dissimilarity in botanical composition between two communities) based on weed species present was generally high when comparing herbicide-treated and untreated plots when assessed at the tillering stage of rice. At rice maturity, the highest dissimilarity value was shown between the minimum tillage plot (one rotavation and one harrowing) and the improved treatments which included other cultivations and herbicides. Broad-leaved weeds became dominant in the plots that did not receive any herbicide application whereas sedge weeds became dominant when herbicides were applied. The lowest weed number and weed weights throughout the whole season were recorded on the plot that received the herbicides butachlor and benthiocarb as part of the seedbed preparation with a subsequent application of piperophos/dimethametryn mixture 10 days after transplanting. The highest grain yield, 6·8 t/ha, was harvested from this plot. This was significantly higher than yields from the conventional weeding treatments of single applications of either butachlor (5·8 t/ha) 5 days after transplanting or piperophos/dimethametryn (4·4 t/ha) 10 days after transplanting.  相似文献

Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) seedlings compete poorly against the rapid growth of warm-season annual weeds. Weed control is required before this heat and drought-tolerant legume can be reliably grown in the U.S. southern Great Plains as a potential source of livestock hay between annual plantings of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Currently, no herbicides are labeled for use on pigeon pea grown in the U.S. Three years of replicated field experiments were conducted to determine the effects of applications (1× and 2× rates) of herbicides (pre-emergence, sulfentrazone + chlorimuron and metribuzin; post-emergence, imazapic and sethoxydim) on weed suppression, pigeon pea dry matter, and carry-over effects on a winter wheat crop. The most abundant summer weeds were broadleaf, and all herbicide treatments, except sethoxydim (grass herbicide), reduced weed densities compared to untreated plots without adversely affecting pigeon pea stands. Imazapic treatments provided the most effective weed control. Overall average pigeon pea dry matter ranged from 75 to 256 g m−2 with sethoxydim and the untreated control ≤ metribuzin ≤ sulfentrazone + chlorimuron ≤ hand weeded control ≤ imazapic. Compared to the hand-weeded control, imazapic treatments greatly reduced wheat dry matter (1×, 65% and 2×, 91%) and grain yield (1×, 59% and 2×, 93%). Imazapic should not be used unless nontransgenic imidazolinone herbicide tolerant wheat cultivars are planted. While the other herbicides decreased negative effects of weeds on pigeon pea dry matter without greatly affecting productivity of a following wheat crop, appropriate labels for each of these herbicides will be required prior to their use by southern Great Plains pigeon pea producers.  相似文献

Nine herbicide treatments were applied to potatoes grown at three locations in each of 3 years. The locations were characterized by widely different soil types—silty clay loam, sandy loam, and muck—and by differences in rainfall and temperatures during the growing season. None of the herbicide treatments applied pre-emergence gave adequate weed control at all locations and/or in all years. EPTC at 6 lb per acre (6.72 kg/ha) gave excellent weed control on both mineral soils but not on muck. Metabromuron at 4 lb per acre (4.48 kg/ha gave excellent weed control only on the low organic matter sandy loam. Propachlor at 6 lb. (6.72 kg/ha) and 2 lb amiben plus 3 lb propachlor (2.24 plus 3.36 kg/ha) gave variable control. Four herbicides: 1 lb paraquat (1.12 kg/ha), 2 lb linuron (2.24 kg/ha), 6 lb dinoseb (6.72 kg/ha) and 6 lb dinoseb plus 2.25 dalapon (6.72 plus 2.52 kg/ha) applied at potato plant emergence, when weeds were in the 2–6 leaf stage, also gave variable control but as a group generally gave better control than the pre-emergence herbicides, particularly on muck soil. The effectiveness of herbicides applied at potato plant emergence was less affected by soil type than those applied pre-emergence but was affected by the degree of weed emergence. On muck soil, weeds generally emerged well before “at emergence” herbicide treatments were applied. Tuber yields were not directly affected by the herbicides, but were reduced where weed control was inadequate. Tuber specific gravity and chip color were unaffected by the herbicides.  相似文献
