The critical period of rice-weed competition was studied for the rice varieties Oryzica 1 and CICA 8, in 1989 and 1990. Weed species were: Eleusine indica, Echinochloa crus-galli, Echinochloa colonum, Cyperus difformis, Cyperus esculentus, Cyperus iria, Leptochloa filiformis, and Eclipta alba. Co...

Yield loss prediction for integrated weed management in direct-seeded rice
Weed control in Latin America is costly and heavily dependent upon herbicides. Often irrigated rice farmers spray herbicides in late post-emergence at 30 to 44 days after emergence (d.a.e.). The economic benefits from such late applications are often unclear. Two experimental approaches involving...

Mixed weed infestations : prediction of crop losses for economic weed management in rice
Monoculture of irrigated rice (Oryza sativa L.) in Latin America has led to serious weed problems and intensive herbicide use. Yield loss prediction enables the economic analysis of weed control, providing a basis for strategic use of herbicides and diversified weed management, but site differenc...
