The weeds interference on the soybean crop may cause serious yield reductions, as a consequence of its interference on the soybean growth and yield components. The knowledge of the period previous to the interference (PPI) of weeds has become of great practical importance in the ...

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the ecology and, linear and spatial correlation between weeds in and soil apparent electrical conductivity (ECa, mS m-1) in a grassland. Measurements were done in 23/06/2008 (ECa) and 24/06/2008 (weeds). Data were analyzed usin...

Weeds can negatively affect the quantity and quality on orchards fruit yield. They usually occur in clusters in a given area, not evenly distributed throughout the entire field. Thus, the site-specific application of herbicides makes possible the use of control methods, decreasin...

Broad mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks, 1904) (Acari: Tarsonemidae), is distinguished for being a polyphagous pest, cosmopolitan and for have been founded attacking various cultures of global importance including the Capsicum frutescens chili pepper crops. Due to the damage...

With the objective of evaluating the effect of the mulches produced by the cover crop Dolichos lablab, Cajanus cajan, Crotalaria juncea, Pennisetum glaucum, a mixture of three cover crops (Dolichos lablab + Cajanus cajan + Crotalaria juncea), and a natural infestation in orange t...

The use of cover crops on no-tillage system can add several advantages, such as controlling the weeds population. The leguminous species also carry out biological nitrogen fixation, increase nutrients to the soil and bring other benefits. Therefore, this research aimed at testing...

Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) has major presence in the history of Brazil and possess great expression in the current national economy. The objective of this work was to determine the occurrence effects of vinasse and raw extract of sugarcane in the control of weeds. The e...

The objective of this research was to determine the phytotoxic effect of the n-hexane extract obtained from the bark of Drimys winteri on germination and growth of Convolvulus arvensis, Setaria pumila, Daucus carota and Cichorium intybus. The phytotoxic effects of the extract on ...

ABSTRACT: Integrated weed management (IWM) is essential to sustainable agricultural production by reducing costs and nega tive environmental impact. Weeds are not necessarily undesirable and, in certain situations, they are more beneficial than harmful, contributing to integratio...

ABSTRACT. The recent exploration of autonomous robotics tasks in agro-industry has permitted the integration of theories of artificial vision and mobile robotics with tasks in precision agriculture. Artificial vision allows for the classification of weeds and crops from images of...

The objective of this work was to verify the effects of the combination between weeds and intercropping with gliricídia (thirty viable seeds m-2 broadcast) on the weed and corn yields. Completely randomized blocks design with four repetitions in subdivided parts was used. Hybrids...

Besides contributing to aspects related to soil protection, the cover crops also contribute to the weeds suppression during the counter season. Aiming to analyze the potential of species used as winter cover crops in winter management, two experiments were set up in areas located...

This study analyzed possible interferences associated to the amount of crop residues produced by the black oats and the consortium of black oats, common vetch and forage turnip on weeds incidence and soil seed bank. It was a field trial with seven treatments and five replications...

In agricultural production systems have been employed various techniques to achieve the goals focused on sustainability. Tactics or tools of management are adopted in order to provide greater productivity, lower impact on natural resources and better human development. The contro...

In Brazil, the development of tools for weeds recognition, capable of aiding risk detection and decision making on the fieldwork is still embryonic. This masters thesis presents the development of a pattern recognition system that recognizes weeds and gives the occupation percent...

The weeds present spatial variability in the field. This spatial variability allows the mapping and the control of these plants on a site-specific basis. The purposes of this work were to develop and to evaluate a method for determination of the time of response of an equipment f...

The greater difficulty tillage performed under organic management faces is weed control. More efficient weed management can be achieved with the knowledge of how its change over time. Weed population changes according to management. The use of cover crops in tillage organic syste...

The objective of this work was to identify the cassava culture weeds species, the interference degree that they exercise on the cultivation and the plant morphologic characteristics in function of the growing and decreasing coexistence periods and also this culture consortium via...

The objective of this work was to evaluate and compare weed population establishment, foliar nutrient contents and corn production under conventional and organic no-tillage systems. The experiment was conducted in 2004/2005 and 2005/2006 at the Experimental Station of Coimbra, MG...
