e0“However, in the year with more amount of rainfall in July and significantly less in August (2011), the highest yields had been noted on the objects, where brush weeder (three times during the vegetation season) and brush weeder (two times during the season) and hiller on plants (with their 30 cm height) were used.”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Mechanical weed control had little influence on sorghum yield in the year with limited July rainfall.
- Intervention effect Three brush-weeder passes produced the highest sorghum yields in the wetter-July year.
- Intervention effect Omitting mechanical cultivation reduced sorghum dry matter yields by 17% to 40% against mechanically cultivated plots.
- Intervention effect Under limited July rainfall, sorghum yields were similar at 20 and 40 t per hectare fertilization doses.
- Intervention effect With more rainfall, higher organic fertilization dose favored dry matter yield regardless of mechanical cultivation.
- Observation Organic fertilization and cultivation method differentiated whole-plant dry matter content only slightly.
- Intervention effect In 2010, the higher compost dose lowered plant dry matter content regardless of cultivation method.
