Weed · 3 articles
Annual dicotyledonous weeds pose a serious threat to crop productivity, annually competing with them for access to soil moisture and nutrients. Failure to control the population of these plants leads to a significant decrease in yield and a deterioration in the quality of the produce, which makes their control a priority task for both professional agronomists and owners of private plots.
In this selection, we examine key strategies for plant protection, including modern chemical methods and agrotechnical practices. Readers will find information on the effectiveness of applying herbicides, such as the product "Russel 100", and will learn about the causes of weed resistance to popular groups of active ingredients. Special attention is paid to preventing harmful plants from developing resistance to pesticides and to the specifics of managing unwanted vegetation in perennial plantings, such as in vineyards. The materials presented will help to better understand the mechanisms of plant protection and choose the optimal control methods to maintain the health of cultivated crops.
Plant protection For agronomists
The article presents the results of field trials of the florasulam-based herbicide Russel 100. The biological efficacy of the product in controlling broad-leaved weeds in maize and winter wheat crops is examined
Plant protection For agronomists
The article examines the causes of weed resistance to herbicides in winter wheat crops. The author analyzes the mechanisms of resistance formation and proposes control methods for this phenomenon to maintain the yield of grain crops.
Viticulture For agronomists
Weeds deprive grapevines of nutrients, inducing diseases and reducing yield. The article examines methods of weed control using mulching, protective films, and proper herbicide application
