  The impact of strip cultivation on weed seed predation

  Strip cultivation is an agricultural technique that provides both practical and ecological benefits. This method involves increasing crop diversity,...
• 

  Does strip width affect the level of weed seed predation

  Weed seed predation, carried out by a variety of organisms, is a key tool in weed management. However, more research is needed to understand how to...
• 

  Effects of spatial arrangement of intercropping on weed suppression

  This project aims to explore how intercropping spatial arrangement influences weed suppressive and yielding ability of crops. A field experiment with...
• 

  Seedbed Preparation: Timing for Better Weed Management

  This project aims to explore how timing influences the composition of weed communities in agricultural fields. By conducting an experiment with...
• 

  Strip Cultivation: Strip Edges and Weed Proliferation

  The aim of this project is to explore the impact of strip edges on weed proliferation in strip cultivation. Our focus is on studying the weed...
• 

  Investigating root trait plasticity and weed suppression in cereal-legume intercropping systems

  Intercropping, the simultaneous cultivation of multiple crop species on the same land, offers several advantages over sole crop stands, including...
• 

  The potential of intercropping for weed suppression and crop yield

  Intercropping is the agricultural practice where two or more crop species are cultivated simultaneously within a single season on the same area of...
• 

  Quantifying plant traits and weed suppression in intercrop systems

  Intercropping is the agricultural practice where two or more crop species are cultivated simultaneously within a single season on the same area of...
• 

  Controlling weeds without herbicides

  Weeds are a serious biotic production constraint in most agricultural production systems. Acting at the same trophic level as the crop, weeds capture...
