Weed interference consistently poses a significant agronomic challenge in cotton production, leading to unfavorable direct and indirect consequences. Consequently, the predominant strategy employed to manage weeds is the application of synthetic herbicides. However, this extensive reliance has resulted in the development of herbicide-resistant weed...

Weed infestation has seriously affected the yield and quality of rapeseed, which is a globally significant oil crop. While the application of chemical herbicides in agriculture has greatly boosted agricultural efficiency and crop yield, it has also unfortunately led to escalating environmental pollution and the emergence of herbicide-resistant weed...

Weeds are undesirable plants that can interfere with human activities and can hamper crop production and practices. The competition among ornamentals and weeds for space, nutrition, light, and moisture within a restricted area, such as in container production, can be intense and destructive. In response to increasing concerns regarding herbicide in...

In recent years, interest in natural products with herbicidal activity as new tools for integrated weed management has increased. The European Union is demanding a reduction in the number of herbicides used, forbidding use of the most toxic ones, despite the problem of weed resistance increasing. Pelargonic acid (PA) is the only natural herbicide a...

Safflower is a multipurpose crop with several uses that can offer benefits to rainfed cereal-based cropping systems due to its tolerance to cold, drought, salinity, and its reduced need for agricultural inputs. Safflower requires good weed control for optimum yields because it is a very poor competitor with weeds, especially at the early growth sta...

White lupine (Lupinus albus L.) is a well-known green manure crop in Hungary, but the production of seeds can be badly impacted by weeds. The sweet white lupine ‘Nelly’ was grown on acidic sandy soil, and experimental plots were treated with different herbicides. Flumioxazin (0.06 kg ha−1), pendimethalin (5 L ha−1), dimethenamid-P (1.4 L ha−1), pet...

The aim of this study was to analyze agronomic management in the production of winter oilseed rape (WOR) in different tillage systems. The field experiment (Poland, 2016–2019) had a 35–1 fractional factorial design with two replications, where five fixed factors were tested at three levels. The experimental factors were as follows. A—tillage: (A0) ...

The performance and degradation of nonwoven mulches made from viscose, jute, hemp fibers, and their blends with PLA fibers, subjected to field conditions, are investigated. This research explores the possible substitution of traditional agricultural polyethylene mulching agro foil with environmentally friendly biodegradable nonwoven mulches produce...

Phalaris brachystachys (short-spiked canary grass) is considered to be among the most troublesome cereal weeds in Mediterranean areas. A bioeconomic model, based on population dynamics, competition and economic sub-models, was developed to simulate the long-term economic consequence of using herbicide-based strategies: no herbicide application, ful...

Introduction The EU Farm to Fork strategy aims to reduce the use of pesticides and associated toxicological risks. However, the risks coming along with currently available alternatives to chemical weed control in sugar beet have not yet been evaluated. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the toxicological risks to arthropods, aquatic ...
