The Bioefficacy of Pre- and Post-Emergence Herbicides in Winter Maize Zea Mays L.

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to determine whether or not pre- and post-emergence herbicides were equally successful in suppressing weeds and fostering the development of winter maize (Zea mays L.). The study's objective was to compare the herbicides' bioeficiency in controlling weeds and their effect on crop output. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of both pre- and post-emergence herbicides in controlling weeds in winter maize fields. Parameters of crop growth and grain output were analyzed alongside weed density and weed biomass. Herbicide dosage, timing, and weed species information was collected and evaluated. Results showed that both pre- and post-emergence herbicides were effective in suppressing weed growth and encouraging the development of winter maize. These results will help farmers and agronomists make more informed decisions when choosing herbicide treatments for winter maize fields.
