“…Mechanical weed control reduced the number of weeds by twice as much as the control variant. These results were confirmed in the studies of Ciesielska and Wysmułek [29]. In their opinion, metribuzin, regardless of the date of use, is characterized by a wide spectrum of weed control, while the addition of rimsulfuron and the ethoxylated isodecyl alcohol adjuvant caused the majority of weeds present in the potato crop to be destroyed by 87-100%.…”

“…The size of potato yields is largely determined by weeds, and the number, size of the air-dried matter of weeds, and their species composition play a significant role [23][24][25][26][27][28]. The lowest number of weeds in the tests, regardless of the date of weed infestation measurement timing, was recorded after using the mixture of metribuzin + sulfosulfuran + SN oil, and the highest number of weeds found in the tests was after the application of metribuzin before the emergence of the crop.…”

Effect of Mechanical and Herbicide Treatments on Weed Densities and Biomass in Two Potato Cultivars

et al. 2020

The effect of potato cultivar and mechanical or herbicide treatments on weed densities and biomass was determined in a research study on a field, conducted from 2007 to 2009 at the Institute of Plant Breeding and Acclimatization. Included in the study were two cultivars and different weed control treatments, including a mechanical method and metribuzin combined with various herbicides and application timings. Chemical methods of controlling weeds were more effective than mechanical methods to reduce weed densities and biomass. The combination of metribuzin with rimsulfuron + SN oil, applied before potato emergence (PRE), was more effective than the other metribuzin combinations. The weed infestation of potato cv. “Irga” was greater than that of cultivar “Fianna” due to differences in the type of growth.

“…Weeds are one of the main factors limiting the potato yields. This is favored by: the use of manure combined with intensive fertilization, wide row spacing and slow initial plant growth, which reduce the competitive action of potato plants against weeds, creating ideal conditions for their development [8][9][10]. The negative impact of weed infestation, expressed in the reduction of the potato tuber yield and the deterioration of tuber quality traits, has been found by many authors.…”

The Positive Effects of Mechanical and Chemical Treatments with the Application of Biostimulants in the Cultivation of Solanum tuberosum L.

et al. 2022

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of mechanical and chemical treatments with the application of biostimulants on the effectiveness of weed infestation reduction and potato yielding. A three-year field research study was conducted at the Agricultural Experimental Station Zawady (52°03′ N; 22°33′ E). The field experiment was set up in a split-plot design with three replicates. The first factor was the two edible potato cultivars, and the second was five methods of mechanical and chemical treatments with biostimulants: (1) control object—mechanical weeding, (2) the herbicide Avatar 293 ZC (clomazone + metribuzin), (3) the herbicide Avatar 293 ZC and the biostimulant PlonoStart, (4) the herbicide Avatar 293 ZC and the biostimulant Aminoplant, (5) the herbicide Avatar 293 ZC and the biostimulant Agro-Sorb Folium. Before emergence, the control object was double ridging and single ridging with harrowing and double ridging after emergence. On other objects (2–5) before emergence, two ridgings were applied. The assessment of weed infestation was performed using the quantitative weight method on two dates: about 2 weeks after the application of the herbicide and biostimulants and before the potato tubers harvest. The herbicide and the herbicide with biostimulants applied to the potato crop showed a positive influence in reducing the number and fresh weight of weeds compared to mechanical-only treatments. The highest effectiveness, calculated on the basis of the number and fresh mass of weeds, was found on the fifth object. It was, on average, 70.5 and 71.6% for cultivars, respectively. Research into the use of biostimulants in potato cultivation will continue due to the pro-environmental nature of biostimulants and the importance of this crop. It is certain that the methodology of future field experiments will meet the challenges of sustainable development.
