Title
The Effect of Simazine on Yield and Major Nutrient Uptake by Maize and Wheat1
O. P. Joshi; N. P. Datta Indian Journal of Weed Science 1976
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Simazine applied at 1.0 kg/ha and above reduced the yield of the residual wheat crop.
- Intervention effect Farmyard manure at 5,000 kg/ha did not reduce the toxic effect of the herbicide on maize.
- Intervention effect Residual farmyard manure effectively reduced simazine toxicity to wheat grains, with a statistically significant difference.
- Intervention effect Residual farmyard manure reduced simazine toxicity to wheat straw, without a statistically significant difference.
- Intervention effect Farmyard manure applied to wheat was superior to sludge and green manure in increasing yield.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen content of the crops showed an increasing trend with increasing simazine levels in both crops.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus and potassium content of the crops rose with simazine application over the control.
- Intervention effect Total uptake of major nutrients increased with simazine application.
