Adjustment of Weed Hoeing to Narrowly Spaced Cereals
Agriculture, 2018 Weed hoeing can be successfully performed in wide row crops, such as sugar beet, maize, soybean and wide spaced cereals. However, little experience is available for hoeing in narrow cereal row spaces below 200 mm. Yet, mechanical weed control can pose an

Camera-guided inter-row hoeing in winter oilseed rape with different inter-inter-row spacing
Plant, Soil and EnvironmentNew cropping practices such as single-grain seeding, lower seed densities with stronger cultivars, wide inter-row spacings and camera-guided side-shift control for weed hoeing facilitate mechanical weed control in oilseed rape.
