Weed biomass and productivity of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L) Moench) as influenced by spacing and pendimethalin-based weed management [PDF]
Field trials were conducted at the Teaching and Research Farm of the Kwara State University, Malete, Nigeria, to determine the effect of plant spacing and weed control methods on weed infestation, growth and yield of okra during the 2016 and 2017 ...

How to produce more biomass for direct seeding mulched based cropping system in sub-saharian Africa ? Example in North Cameroun [PDF]
In North Cameroon, from 2001 to 2006, more than 250 farmers tried direct seeding mulchbased cropping systems (DMC) in their fields. DMC systems were based on farmer traditional rotation i.e. cereal//cotton.

Reducing weed infestation in winter wheat by sowing technique [PDF]
Hoeing can improve weed control in cereals but this requires wider row spacing of the crop. A spe-cific band row design may also ensure high crop yield and quality, especially at the conditions of organic farming.

THE INVESTIGATION OF CROP WEEDINESS IN THE CROP ROTATION OF ORGANIC FARMING SYSTEM [PDF]
Field experiments were conducted during the period of 2004 – 2006 at the Research and Study Farm „Vecauce”. The aim of the investigation was to establish the weediness’ dynamics of crops in a six-field crop rotation of an organic farming system.
