Abstract

Background: Weeds are among the most limiting factors in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) production, as they compete for resources, reduce crop growth and yield and increase production costs. Therefore, effective and sustainable weed management strategies are essential to ensure stable and profitable sugar beet production. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of different herbicide active ingredients, their mixtures, and mechanical control practices on weed suppression, crop growth, and yield in sugar beet. Methods: Field experiments were ...
