SOIL TEMPERATURE MODIFICATIONS CAUSED BY SOLARIZATION IN NURSERIES
Ciência Rural, 1993 Solarization effects on soil temperature were evaluated during the autumn. The increase in soil temperature caused by the use of transparent polyethylene (PE) low tunnels over solarized nurseries, in subtropical central region of the Rio Grande do Sul ...

Soil solarization for weed control in carrot [PDF]
Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2000 Soil solarization is a technique used for weed and plant disease control in regions with high levels of solar radiation. The effect of solarization (0, 3, 6, and 9 weeks) upon weed populations, carrot (Daucus carota L. cv.

WEED CONTROL BY SOLARIZATION AND MULCHING IN COWPEA DEVELOPMENT [PDF]
Revista de Agricultura Neotropical, 2020 Weeds are a serious threat to agriculture because they compete with crops, thereby interfering in production. As such, this study aimed to assess weed control using soil solarization and mulching on the growth and yield of cowpea. A completely randomized

Perennial weeds respond to control by soil solarization
California Agriculture, 1993 Soil solarization in summers in Central Valley and near-coastal sites controlled bermudagrass and johnsongrass covered by polyethylene tarps. Field bindweed was also controlled during solarization, but regrowth occurred.

Soil solarization based on natural soil moisture: a practical approach for reducing the seed bank of invasive plants in wetlands [PDF]
NeoBiota, 2019 Soil solarization is a well-established method to disinfect soil for efficient weed control. However, the feasibility of applying this method in the restoration of invaded natural habitats is unclear.
