Annual intercropping suppresses weeds: A meta-analysis
Intercropping has been advocated as an environmentally benign method to suppress weeds in agriculture. However, it is not evident from the literature what size of weed suppressive effect is achieved on average by intercropping, and how species choice and crop management affect this effect.

Mycorrhizal fungi suppress aggressive agricultural weeds [PDF]
Plant growth responses to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are highly variable, ranging from mutualism in a wide range of plants, to antagonism in some non-mycorrhizal plant species and plants characteristic of disturbed environments. Many agricultural weeds are non mycorrhizal or originate from ruderal environments where AMF are rare or absent. This

Weed suppression by cereals: Beyond ‘competitive ability’
Abstract Much research on cereal‐weed competition has been directed towards finding cultivars that have high ‘competitive ability’ with weeds. I argue that this objective is insufficient, because weed suppression is usually the result of interactions among genotype, environment and management rather than direct effects of genotype ...

Weed Manager-A model-based decision support system for weed management in arable crops [PDF]
Weed Manager is a model-based decision support system to assist arable farmers and advisers in weed control decisions on two time scales: within a single season and over several years in a rotation.

No-till planting crops into rolled-crimped cover crops can improve soil health while reducing labor and fuel requirements compared with traditional tillage-based production. However, little information is available to help farmers optimize the management

Interactions between pre- and post-emergence weed harrowing in spring cereals [PDF]
Pre- and post-emergence weed harrowing were studied in spring cereals in different environments and with two types of harrows in Norway during 2004–2006.

This paper explores the effect of agroecological service crops (ASCs), i.e., crops included in the crop rotation for their ecosystem services, terminated with an in-line tillage roller crimper (ILRC) on weed community composition and their functional ...
