“…Whereas, Singh et al (2013) also advised thorough sitespecific verification of integrated measures of weed management. Keeping in view the weeds as a major yield constraint and smothering effect of high density wheat planted in varying patterns in an Integrated Weed Management (IWM) tactic, the present study was carried out under the agro-climatic conditions of Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan.…”

“…Likewise, Marwat et al (2011) evaluated -1 705 vs. 572 kg ha biomass of weeds in 150 as compared to 100 -1 kg ha seeding rate in wheat. Singh and Singh (1996), Pandey et al (2009) and Singh et al (2013) concluded from their experiments that bi-directional (cross-drill) sowing of wheat registered significantly lesser biomass of weeds as compared to undirected sowing. Similarly, Brac and Walia (2009) reported that if the condition is ideal, higher than the normal seeding rate can increase crop competitiveness and yield.…”

“…Hassan and Khan (2007) and Khan et al (2008) suppressed wild oats with an increased seeding density of wheat. Singh et al (2013) stated that cross drill method (bidirectional drill) reduces compaction, prepares the seed bed well, ensures that crop seed must be placed in an ideal growing environment, enables the crop to emerge as early as possible and suppresses weed seed to germinate and grow.…”

“…Ghaffar et al (2013) conducted an experiment on optimizing seed rate and row spacing for different wheat cultivars and their results indicated that with the application of higher seed rates weeds density was lesser. Singh et al (2013) argued about the significance of cross drill sowing method in weed management. They reported that due to higher number of wheat tillers in cross drill method resulted in enhanced competitive ability of weeds.…”

Aim : Methodology :Results : Interpretation :Eco-friendly and sustainable weed management tactics are advocated by weed managers worldwide. In order to develop such a technology, an experiment was undertaken at Agronomic Research Area of the Faculty of Agriculture, Gomal University, Dera Ismail Khan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, Pakistan during rabi season.A 2-factor experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block d e s i g n w i t h s p l i t p l o t arrangement with the planting patterns (line and criss cross sowings) assigned to main plots and seed rates (50, 100, 150, 200 -1 kg ha ) of wheat kept into sub plots.Weed density and biomass at harvest were 28 and 33%, lesser in a criss cross as compared to line sowing. Weed suppression was inversely and g r a i n y i e l d w a s d i r e c t l y proportional to seeding rates.The highest grain yield (6.9 t ha ) was obtained from the interaction -1 of 200 kg ha seed rate under criss cross planting.Regardless of planting pattern, 37% higher grain yield was harvested at the -1 highest rate (200 kg ha ) as compared to the lowest (50 kg -1 ha ) seed rate. Thus, integration of denser crop and uniform stand via criss cross pattern planting in small grains can reduce the pollution of herbicides and e n e r g y c o s t o n w e e d management.
