Overview

Field trial demonstrates that weed density and biomass suppress green fodder yield in maize, highlighting the value of weed control efficiency.

Key Points

To evaluate the impact of various weed management treatments on the relationship among weed metrics, crop growth characteristics, and green fodder yield in maize.
Conducted a field experiment across two sites (PAU, Ludhiana and RRS, Gurdaspur) during the Kharif season of 2020.
Assessed weed parameters including weed density, biomass at the knee-high stage, and weed control efficiency.
Evaluated maize crop metrics such as plant height, plant dry weight, and overall green fodder yield.
Green fodder yield exhibited significant positive correlations with weed control efficiency, maize plant dry weight, and plant height.
Fodder yield was negatively correlated with weed density and biomass at the knee-high stage.
Across both locations, each unit increase in weed density and biomass reduced fodder yield by 0.0655 t/ha and 0.083 t/ha, respectively, whereas a unit increase in weed control efficiency raised yield by 0.166 t/ha.
