Spatial Distribution, Temporal Stability, And Yield Loss Estimates For Annual Grasses And Common Ragweed (Ambrosia Artimisiifolia) In A Corn/Soybean Production Field Over Nine Years, Sharon A. Clay, Bruce Kreutner, David E. Clay, Cheryl Reese, Jonathan Kleinjan, Frank Forcella

Agronomy, Horticulture and Plant Science Faculty Publications

Weeds generally occur in patches in production fields. Are these patches spatially and temporally stable? Do management recommendations change on the basis of these data? The population density and location of annual grass weeds and common ragweed were examined in a 65-ha corn/soybean production field from 1995 to 2004. Yearly treatment recommendations were developed from field means, medians, and kriging grid cell densities, using the hyperbolic yield loss (YL) equation and published incremental YL values (I ), maximum YL values (A), and YL limits of 5, 10, or 15%. Mean plant densities ranged from 12 to 131 annual grasses m22 …
