Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Herbicide alone most reduced weed density, dry weight and fresh weight.
- Intervention effect Herbicide alone most increased wheat grain yield and yield components.
- Intervention effect Sorghum timing and concentration decreased weed density.
- Intervention effect Sorghum extract at 1:5 gave 45 grains per spike.
- Intervention effect Sorghum extract at 1:5 increased spikes per square metre to 257.
- Intervention effect Sorghum extract at 1:5 gave thousand-grain weight of 59.0 g.
- Intervention effect Sorghum extract at 1:5 gave a harvest index of 36.8%.
- Intervention effect Sorghum extract at 1:4 produced taller plants of 92.4 cm.
- Intervention effect Herbicide at 1317 g per hectare increased spikes per square metre to 256.
- Intervention effect Herbicide at 1317 g per hectare increased grains per spike to 45.
- Intervention effect Herbicide at 1317 g per hectare gave thousand-grain weight of 58.3 g.
- Intervention effect Herbicide at 1317 g per hectare gave a harvest index of 37.4%.
- Intervention effect Combined sorghum extract and herbicide at tillering gave 255 spikes per square metre.
- Intervention effect Combined sorghum extract and herbicide at tillering increased grains per spike to 44.8.

- Observation Thousand-grain weight differences were not significant.
- Recommendation The authors propose 1:5 sorghum extract with 1317 g per hectare affinity herbicide at tillering for weed control, yield and net return.
