Determination of Weed Control Efficiency of Pre-Rice Cropping Cassava/Legume Intercrops and Different Weed Management Practices in Low Land Rice at Badeggi Central Nigeria

I. Umaru; A. U Gbanguba; M Bashir; et al. British Journal of Multidisciplinary and Advanced Studies 2023. doi:10.37745/bjmas.2022.0256

Other claims from this paper (12)

Intervention effect Rice planted after cassava/Mucuna and cassava/Aeschynomene intercrops under two hand weeding and herbicide produced lower weed density and dry matter.
Intervention effect Weed control efficiency was higher in rice planted after cassava/Mucuna intercrop.
Intervention effect In 2011, weed reduction in rice after cassava/legume intercrops was 25-45 % compared with rice after fallow.
Intervention effect In 2012, weed reduction in rice after cassava/legume intercrops was 30-50 % compared with rice after fallow.
Intervention effect In 2013, weed reduction in rice after cassava/legume intercrops was 45-65 % compared with rice after fallow.
Intervention effect In 2011, two hand weeding increased rice panicles per m2 and grain yield by 72.9% compared with zero weeding.
Intervention effect In 2012, two hand weeding increased rice panicles per m2 and grain yield by 83.6% compared with zero weeding.
Intervention effect In 2013, two hand weeding increased rice panicles per m2 and grain yield by 84.1% compared with zero weeding.
Association Rice after natural fallow under zero weeding had higher weed density, which resulted in poor rice performance.
Intervention effect Higher rice plant height was recorded in rice grown after cassava/Mucuna and cassava/Aeschynomene.
Intervention effect Higher numbers of rice tillers per stand were recorded in rice grown after cassava/Mucuna and cassava/Aeschynomene.
Recommendation Cassava/cowpea and cassava/Aeschynomene cropping systems should be adopted by farmers for rice production.
