Practice Name:

Eradication of Perpetual Creeping Cynodom (Cynodon dactylon ) Types Weeds

Details

Category	Crop Protection and Disease Management
Scout	HBN
Details Of Innovation	The farmer had failed to eradicute creeping cycnodom weeds by chimical weedicides then he concived the idea of requated ploughing as a means of eradicing the weed so he phough a field infected by creepingcynodom weed by chimical weedicides .Then he conceivedthe idea of required ploughing, so he ploughed a field infested by creeping cynodon for six month at interval of a few day and the weed was removed. To destroy creeping cynodom of a field, It is ploughed with a weeding implement at weekly intervals for six a weeding intervals for six months since the Kota of creeping cynodom are deprived of sunlight for shely long time, It is completely method out & destroyed. He is using hte method since last 10 years all those people of the neigbounhood who know about this method i.e 50% people use this method. information about weeding creeper cynodem. It is pravagatio in certain soil types, Where its progpagtion takes place by this its nodes and pices so when it is carrie3id with wind or by and becomes a weed. The weed penetrates into soil to five feet depth & Thus is very and pointed and stems are also very stender. Evalution: Ploughing of the weed creeping cynomen for six month so as to deprive it of sunlight can remove it from the field permanetly.

PAS 1	"Techniques for Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. control suitable for use in fallow organic transition in the southeastern U.S. coastal plain."
PAS 2	"Preventive methods include crop rotation, cover crops (when used as green manures or dead mulches), tillage systems, seed bed preparation, soil solarisation, and management of drainage and irrigation systems and of crop residues.Cultural methods include crop sowing time and spatial arrangement, crop genotype choice, cover crops (when used as living mulches), intercropping, and crop fertilization. Curative methods include any chemical, physical (e.g. mechanical and thermal) and biological methods used for direct weed control in an already established crop. A list of the main methods that can be used in an integrated weed management strategy is shown in." http://www.fao.org/3/y5031e/y5031e0e.htm
PAS 3	"Worldwide limited success in weed control is probably the result of an over-simplification in tackling the problem. Too much emphasis has been given to the development of weed control tactics (especially synthetic herbicides) as ‘the’ solution for any weed problems, while the importance of integrating different tactics (e.g. preventive, cultural, mechanical, and chemical methods) in a cropping system-based weed management strategy has long been neglected."http://www.fao.org/3/y5031e/y5031e0e.htm
