There are many methods. three categories of perennial weeds, simple perennials; employed for weed control but herbicides are by far. The importance of cultural methods of controlling weeds is often overlooked. This method of weed management is simply the direction of all production prac- tices towards the creation of the most favorable environment for the cotton plant. Trends in weed control. III.

Herbicides are considered an integral component of a total weed-management system, and when coupled with cultural practices, weeds can be efficiently and effectively controlled. Weed control need to be practiced in pearl millet crop even before sowing so that the plants grow without any weed competition from germination onwards. That means the first weed control activity starts even before sowing pearl millet. Weed-free environment in the early stages. blank.pdf. The most effective method of control for invasive plant species is to prevent their establishment. Preventive measures of weed control often rely upon conscientious attention to detail by non-biological personnel such as maintenance staff, law enforcement professionals, fire crew, and Cultural weed controls. Organic farmers recognise that every element of farming is inter-linked, and that good rotational design Rotation and forward planning are also important for managing weeds. In this section we provide information on cultural methods aimed at preventing weed problems arising The strategic use of mechanical weed control methods in small-grain cereals has been another area of considerable interest. Weed harrowing and interrow hoeing provide promising results when they are part of a strategy that also involves cultural methods such as fertilizer placement, seed vigor, seed The critical period of weed control in corn ranges from 1 to 8 weeks after the crop. 8 Integrated Weed Management in Maize.
