Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Punch planting with flame weeding reduced intra-row weed densities by 30% in fodder beet compared with normal drilling with flame weeding.
- Intervention effect Punch planting with flame weeding reduced intra-row weed densities by 50% compared with normal drilling without flame weeding.
- Observation Across years, punch planting with flame weeding showed no improved performance from later planting.
- Intervention effect Delayed planting significantly reduced intra-row weed densities in fodder beet.
- Recommendation Punch planting with flame weeding is a promising method of weed control in fodder beet under organic farming.
