Micro-Mechanization to Manage Weed in Sugar Cane [PDF]

open access: possibleSugar Tech
Reducing herbicide usage is not only expected by society at large, it is also vital to protect our health and the environment. With labour being scarce, weed control using micro-mechanization methods is a useful technique that is well-suited to the sugarcane context in Réunion.

Automated Mechanical Weeding

2013
One of the most important agriculture practices is to properly manage weeds because weeds negatively affect crop yield and quality. There are many types of commercial mechanical weeders that use the three main physical techniques: burying, cutting, and uprooting to controlling weeds.

Photosynthetic Mechanisms of Weeds in Taiwan

Australian Journal of Plant Physiology, 1993
One hundred and one species (in 36 families) of weeds on cultivated land in Taiwan were investigated for the occurrence of Kranz leaf anatomy and activities of key enzymes of C4 photosynthesis to determine their photosynthetic mechanisms. Based on the anatomical and biochemical analyses, 75 species were found to possess the C3 and 26 species the C4 ...

Mechanical Weed Control

2009
The aim of this chapter is to highlight and focus on novel and promising developments in soil-engaging intra-row hoeing. Conventional weeding tools for intra-row treatments based on selectivity are limited in control efficacy. Four intra-row weeders based on computer-controlled soil-engaging tools are described. They all rely on input information about

The integration of herbicides with mechanical weeding for weed control in winter wheat

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 2002
Two systems for integrated weed control in winter wheat based around the combination of herbicides with cultural control have been investigated and compared with conventional practice in experiments between 1993 and 2001. These systems were (a) an overall spray of a reduced herbicide dose followed by spring tine harrow weeding and (b) the combination ...
