A call for weed research in industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L)

Abstract: Summary Industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) is grown in more than 30 countries for fibre, seed and flowers, and acreage of cultivation is increasing globally. Hemp has long been promoted as a crop that competes well with weeds and requires little intervention to prevent yield losses. We conducted a literature review and found little peer‐reviewed research to support this claim. We identified only three articles that specifically addressed weed management under field conditions and none provided information on… Show more

“…However, other studies suggest that weed control is essential for high crop yields when hemp is grown for seed or at low plant densities (Jankauskiené et al, 2014;Flessner et al, 2019). Although these latter studies provide indication that weed infestation in early crop growth can cause severe yield losses in hemp, information on crop interaction with weed communities of local agro-ecosystems under different types of cultural management is very scarce (Sandler and Gibson, 2019). Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different fertilization rates and weed management on weed flora and crop growth parameters during the initial growth phase.…”

“…Características como eficiência operacional em grandes áreas, possibilidade de uso sobre períodos chuvosos, quando outros métodos são ineficazes e alta eficiência de controle são as principais características que impulsionam o uso de herbicidas (SILVA et al, 2007;FREITAS et al, 2014). Contudo, nos EUA não há herbicidas registrados para uso na cultura do cânhamo (SANDLER et al, 2019 O cânhamo mostra elevados níveis de sensibilidade às aplicações de herbicidas.…”

“…Diante das pesquisas, é possível que o uso de herbicidas raramente seja mencionado no manejo de plantas daninhas na cultura do cânhamo, pois o uso desses, podem interferir na qualidade do cânhamo, devido a sensibilidade da cultura (MAXWELL, 2016). Na ausência de pesquisas sobre rendimento do cânhamo em relação as plantas daninhas, mais estudos de seletividade são necessários, principalmente com expansão do cultivo da cultura (SANDLER et al, 2019).…”

“…However, hemp is a minor global crop in term of fiber production, with approximately 91,055 hectares (ha) planted in 2016. However, the value of hemp market was estimated to be very high, at $3.9 billion in 2017 and the hemp seed segment is predicted to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 17.1% through at least 2025 [17]. Similarly, the strength of flax fiber of the bast fiber category is twice that of cotton fiber and five times that of wool fiber.…”
