Model of crop:weed competition applied to maize:Abutilon theophrasti interactions. II. Assessing the impact of climate: implications for economic thresholds

Abstract: The practical application of single‐season economic thresholds for post‐emergence weed control decisions has been frustrated by the impact of growing season, climate and edaphic factors on crop:weed interactions. Competition in a mixed plant community is a dynamic process that is contingent upon species‐specific growth characteristics and their expression based on environmental conditions. To address these issues, a modified version of the ALMANAC competition model was parameterized and run to simulate maize:A… Show more

“…Accordingly, similar persistence rates between border and crop-field seed populations suggested that crop-field weeds in our experiment were more competitive than the velvetleaf plants that competed with corn utilized by Nurse and DiTommaso (2005). Supporting this observation, earlyseason precipitation (i.e., May and June) at our study site was 52% below average, a condition known to increase the competitiveness of velvetleaf in crop fields (McDonald and Riha 1999). Also, crop-field weeds in our investigation grew in the presence of soybean.…”

“…Entretanto, potencial de rendimento da cultura, perda proporcional por unidade de planta daninha e eficácia do herbicida são fatores mais difíceis de estimar com precisão devido à variabilidade associada com condições do ambiente, conjunto de espécies daninhas, tamanho das ervas presentes e efeitos dos sistemas de cultivo sobre elas (Coble & Mortensen, 1992;McDonald & Riha, 1999;Pester et al, 2000). Portanto, uma dificuldade em se usar a abordagem de NDE é que o produtor, ao confrontar-se com a decisão de manejo, não conhece antecipadamente qual será o rendimento da cultura livre de plantas daninhas, podendo estimá-lo apenas com base no histórico da lavoura e na meta de rendimento para a qual a cultura é manejada.…”

“…O nível de dano econômico foi introduzido como um conceito para racionalizar as decisões de controle de plantas daninhas, fazendo parte do programa de manejo integrado de plantas daninhas (McDonald & Riha, 1999). Ao se usar o NDE como critério de decisão de controle, as reduções estimadas da produtividade de grãos são comparadas aos custos das opções de controle disponí-veis, podendo-se então avaliar a lucratividade do tratamento de controle selecionado (Bauer & Mortensen, 1992).…”
