Response of vetch, lentil, chickpea and red pea to pre- or post-emergence applied herbicides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Broad-leaved weeds constitute a serious problem in the production of winter legumes, but few selective herbicides controlling these weeds have been registered in Europe.

Farmers’ Preferences for Sustainable Crop Protection: An Integrated Choice and Latent Variable Approach

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyzes farmers' preferences for sustainable crop protection, focusing on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices by incorporating social‐psychological factors to capture economic and behavioral dimensions. Using data from German and Polish potato farmers, we apply an integrated choice and latent variable framework that combines

Management of weeds in summer maize (Zea mays L.) by pre and post emergence herbicides [PDF]

open access: yes
Maize (Zea mays L.) is highly sensitive to weed infestation and management of weeds is the most difficult aspect of summer maize cultivation, leading to significant yield losses of maize fields.

Alternative Cropping Systems and Practices Tend to Improve Sustainability From a Multi‐Criteria Assessment Framework. A Systematic Review

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alternative cropping systems and practices (ACSPs) are increasingly promoted as strategies to enhance sustainability across environmental, economic, and social dimensions. Consequently, evaluating the performance of ACSPs is necessary to determine whether they effectively contribute to sustainability across these multiple dimensions.

Evaluation of Chemical Weed-Control Strategies for Common Vetch (Vicia sativa L.) and Sweet White Lupine (Lupinus albus L.) Under Field Conditions

open access: yesAgronomy
Seed production of common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) and sweet white lupine (Lupinus albus L.) is risky due to weed infestation as few herbicides are permitted for use in crops.

Bidirectional Plant‐Microneedle Responses to Guide Biomaterial Design

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
We examine bidirectional interactions between plants and polymeric microneedles to develop effective compound delivery strategies. Material chemistry and architecture determine stability in the plant environment, cargo–matrix interactions, and the magnitude and duration of the plant response. Plant microneedles should therefore be designed as a coupled

Pre-sowing Weed Management of Purple Nutsedge (Cyperus rotundus) in a Non-crop Ecosystem

open access: yesMadras Agricultural Journal, 2018
Purple nutsedge is a perennial, one of the world worst weed, ravages the field continuously throughout the year in the tropical regions. It thrives and dominates under any environmental conditions. Normally weeds compete with the crops for the nutrients,

Antimicrobial Residues in a Key Cerrado River: Distribution, Persistence, and Effects on Zebrafish Embryo‐Larval Development

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The current study aimed to quantify the antimicrobials amoxicillin (AMX), cefazolin (CFZ), chloramphenicol (CHL), metronidazole (MTZ), and sulfamethoxazole (SX) in effluents and surface water of an important Cerrado river, calculate their half‐lives, and analyze their ecotoxicity following single and combined exposures.

Analysis of Factors Affecting Use of Pre-Emergence Wheat Herbicides in Kenya [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Agrochemicals are used principally to control weeds and pests in agriculture. Wheat production in Kenya has not been sufficient despite concerted efforts by agrochemical companies to market agrochemicals to farmers.
