Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Incorporated trifluralin (0.75 kg ha−1) provided effective weed control in transplanted Springset tomatoes grown with row tunnels and clear polyethylene mulch.
- Intervention effect Pre-emergence diphenamid (6.0 kg ha−1) provided effective weed control in transplanted Springset tomatoes grown with row tunnels and clear polyethylene mulch.
- Intervention effect The plastic row tunnel and mulch system influenced the weed flora by enhancing or inhibiting germination and early growth of certain weed species.
- Intervention effect After 5 or 6 weeks the clear plastic mulch severely limited further weed growth and competition.
- Intervention effect On mulched plots there was no tomato yield or fruit quality response to varying levels of weed control.
- Association On unmulched plots there was a tomato yield response related to levels of weed control.
- Intervention effect The plastic mulch reduced the loss of all three herbicides from soils compared with unmulched plots.
