“…Reduced weed population under mulching treatments may be attributed to the absence of sunlight coupled with the physical barrier provided by bi-colour and black polythene mulch. The significant control of weeds by herbicides and mulches observed in the present studies were also in conformity with the findings of several earlier researchers (Sharma, 2003;Chatha and Chanana, 2007;Dalal et al, 2011;Kaith and Bhardwaj, 2011; Singh and Bal, 2013 and Shankar et al, 2014) [23,5,6,13,24,22] . Herbicides are the most important weed control tools for alleviating the infestation of weeds and getting higher yields (Ashiq et al, 2007) [1] and also seem to be indispensible and have proved to be efficient for weed control (Kahramanoglu and Uygur, 2010) [12] .…”

A field experiment was conducted during 2018 to assess the effect of different weed management strategies on weed count and yield attributes of apple under high density orchard system. The said investigation was carried out in experimental fields of Division of Fruit Science, SKUAST, Kashmir. One year old trees of exotic apple cv. "Elstar" grafted on M-9 T337 rootstock, introduced from Holland in March 2017, were selected for experimentation. Thirteen selected treatments were laid in randomized complete block design, with each treatment replicated thrice. The results revealed that the use of the combination of pre and post emergent herbicide was significantly effective in controlling weeds. Minimum weed count (0.25) was found under T12 (Oxyfluorfen followed by Glufosinate ammonium). Maximum incidence of weeds was recorded under unweeded control. Furthermore significant influence of different weed management strategies was observed on initial and final fruit set in high density apple trees. Maximum final fruit retention was obtained under paddy straw mulch. The highest fruit yield per tree was recorded under T12 (Oxyfluorfen followed by Glufosinate ammonium) which was statistically at par with T5 (paddy straw mulch). Minimum final fruit retention, fruit yield and yield efficiency was recorded under control indicating that weed management strategies are very much essential under high density orchard system for obtaining higher yield.

Similarly, in a container study, applying granular Broadstar 0.25 G (flumioxazin) 0.4 kg ai ha −1 alone controlled 92% of bittercress (Cardamine spp.…”

Weeds, as one of the biggest challenges in the nursery industry, have been controlled by various methods, such as chemical and non-chemical practices. Although these practices have been widely established and tested to control weeds, there is no systematic or meta-analysis review to provide quantitative weed control efficacy information of these practices. To provide a systematic understanding of weed control practices in nursery production, a visualization research trend, a systematic review, and a meta-analysis were conducted. A total of 267 relevant studies were included for the research trend and 83 were included in the meta-analysis. The results in this study showed that interests in nursery weed control have switched dramatically in the past 2–3 decades (1995–2021) from chemical dominant weed control to chemical coexistent with non-chemical techniques. Developing new management tactics and implementing diverse combinations of integrated weed management present the future trend for weed control. The systematic review results showed that chemical methods had the highest weed control efficacy, while non-chemical had the lowest on average, nonetheless, all three weed control practices (chemical, non-chemical, and combined) reduced the weed biomass and density significantly compared with when no strategy was employed. Weed control challenges could be the catalyst for the development of new non-chemical and integrated weed control techniques.
