Barnyardgrass shows sensitivity to reduced doses of topramezone at different growth stages [PDF]
Using less than the labelled dose of herbicides depends mostly on weed spectrum and growth stage of target weeds. The aim of the greenhouse experiment was to determine the efficacy of recommended (67.2 g a.i. ha-1) and reduced doses (44.8, 33.6, 22.4, 16.

Phytotoxic Effects of Essential Oils from Six Lamiaceae Species
Essential oils produced by plants, and their components, could be sources of new natural herbicidal compounds. Thirteen oils extracted from six wild Lamiaceae species (namely Clinopodium suaveolens (Sm.) Kuntze, Satureja montana L. subsp.

Allelopathy and its application as a weed management tool: A review
Weeds are a serious threat to crop production as they interfere with the crop growth and development and result in significant crop losses. Weeds actually cause yield loss higher than any other pest in crop production.

Controlling arable weeds with natural substances as bio-based herbicides
Today farmers manage arable weeds with chemical tools or mechanical tillage practices. While the heavy reliance on synthetic herbicides in conventional arable farming is under discussion, the environmentally driven trend towards reduced tillage as a ...

Manuka Oil, A Natural Herbicide with Preemergence Activity [PDF]
Natural herbicides approved in organic agriculture are primarily nonselective burn-down essential oils applied POST. Multiple applications are often required due to their low efficacy. To address this problem, the in vivo herbicidal activity of manuka oil, the essential oil distilled from manuka tree (Leptospermum scopariumJ.R. and G.

Ametryn removal by Metarhizium brunneum: Biodegradation pathway proposal and metabolic background revealed [PDF]
Ametryn is a representative of a class of s-triazine herbicides absorbed by plant roots and leaves and characterized as a photosynthesis inhibitor. It is still in use in some countries in the farming of pineapples, soybean, corn, cotton, sugar cane or ...
