The effects of organic-compound fertilizer on weed control and rice growth in the transplanting rice cultivation were researched in this article. The results showed that the growth of transplanted rice was promoted (the increased rate was 10.3~27.2%), but the plant number for Echinochloa crus-galli was controlled (the inhibition rate was 50.3~89.2%), besides, small amount of organic-compound fertilizer in controlling Aneilema keisak was highly effective when the transplanted rice was treated with 125~250 kg $10a^{-1}$ organic-compound fertilizer. Moreover, E. crus-galli, Monochoria vaginalis and A. keisak were inhibited largely by increasing the water depth (1~5 cm), whereas Eleocharis kuroguwai and other sedges weeds were not effected by water depth. Compared with the temperature of $20{\sim}35^{\circ}C$, the plant occurrence of E. crus-galli and M. vaginalis at high temperature was inhibited (the inhibition rate were 75.4~92.2% and 49.5%~81.6%, respectively). When the transplanted rice was treated with the above organic-compound fertilizer after 10day, the inhibition rate of plant occurrence for E. crus-galli and M. vaginalis was 33.7% and 23.3%, respectively. Similarly, in the later period of rice growth, the plant height and the numbers of tiller grew slowly in conventional soil in comparison with the soil treated with organic-compound fertilizer. It has been found that the rice yield in experimental soil was decreased by 4%. This result in the field experiment showed that organic material contents in conventional soil were lower than that in soil which used the organic-compound fertilizer. Weed control in experimental soil showed 60.5% lower effects than that in conventional soil.

Field experiment were carried out to elucidate the changes of weed occurrence according to the sowing time and to establish the efficient weed control system in dry seeded rice cultivation. E crus-galli and D. sanguinalis are tow major weeds at the earlier sowings, but C. difformis was dominating at the later sowing. In the case of E. crus-galli, there was a tendency of gaining its dominance values as the rice growth stage advances. The later the sowing time was, the more weeds occurred at the early rice growth stages: However, when measured at heading, total dry weight was greater at the earlier sowings. Yield loss due to weeds were also greater at the earlier sowings. Community diversity of weeds was greater at the later sowings, while specific weed was gradually dominating as rice growth stage advances, regardless of sowing time. When herbicides were applied before 15 DAS, weeds were effectively controlled only upto 35 DAS. So systemic herbicide application, one on 0 to 10 DAS and the other on just after flooding, appeared to be recommendable in direct seeded rice cultivation.

Coconut (Cocos nucifera L) is one of the predominant plantation crops in Sri Lankan economy which is known to have existed for over thousands of years. During the past decades coconut production had been reduced by a significant quantity. The usage of poor quality planting materials is a major reason for the low coconut production. Thus much attention needs to be paid in coconut nurseries. Weed management is a critical management practice in the nursery. Though glyphosate application is becoming popular in nurseries it can affect weeds as well as coconut seedlings growth. Therefore the effects of glyphosate were evaluated by determining the growth of shoot and root of coconut seedlings. Poly bag nursery was prepared and three treatments were used. Treatments were no glyphosate and manual weeding ($T_1$), application of glyphosate 1.08 ai kg $ha^{-1}$ at 2 monthly interval ($T_2$) and application of glyphosate 1.44 ai kg $ha^{-1}$ at 2 monthly interval ($T_3$). Application of glyphosate at early stage of seedling growth had a no significant effect on growth parameters tested. However, the concentrations of glyphosate negatively affected numbers, volumes and dry weights of secondary, tertiary and quaternary roots at the latter stage of seedling growth. The leaf area and the height of seedling were significantly reduced by the highest concentration of glyphosate. Among the growth parameters tested, seedling girth and shoot dry weight were not affected by the application of glyphosate. These results revealed that the usage of glyphosate at both concentrations negatively affected root growth of coconut seedlings. Based on these results, the both concentration levels of glyphosate should be applied to coconut nurseries before sprouting the seed nuts.

A study was conducted to determine the critical period of weed-free maintenance required to produce maximum soybean yields. Leaf area index(LAI). crop growth rate (CGR), and number of pods per plant were increased with extended weed-free maintenance period. Consequently, maximum soybean yields were obtained when weeds were controlled for more than six weeks, but a relatively high level of ;soybean production was attained with only two weeks of weed free maintenance.

Tefuryltrione is a new hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitor, which has been recently registered for the use for paddy rice, Korea. Dose-response studies were conducted to compare rice safety and weed control efficacy of tefuryltrione against Eleocharis kuroguwai. When rice and E. kuroguwai were applied at a range of doses of tefuryltrione, $GR_{90}$ values (the dose required to inhibit weed growth by 90%) of E. kuroguwai were $82.38-93.39g\;a.i.\;ha^{-1}$ in two independent experiments. The $GR_{10}$ values (the dose required to inhibit rice growth by 10%) of tefuryltrione for rice were $297.77-471.54g\;a.i.\;ha^{-1}$. As a result, the selectivity indices ($GR_{10}$ for $rice/GR_{90}$ for E. kuroguwai) of tefuryltrione were 3.19-5.72. Therefore, these results demonstrate that tefuryltrione has a relatively high selectivity between rice and E. kuroguwai with a high herbicidal activity against E. kuroguwai and a good rice safety.

A Two-year field experiment was carried out in 2009 and 2010 to evaluate the effects of different densities of wild oat and nitrogen (N) rates on oilseed rape yield and yield components. Experimental design was split plot with three replications. Increased nitrogen rates up to 150 kg N/ha caused an increase in oilseed rape grain yield in weed-free plots (4.26 t/ha; 1t = $10^3kg$), while even at the lowest density of wild oat (15 $plants/m^2$), increasing N fertilizer only up to 50 kg/ha led to a significant increase in grain yield. Wild oat growth was favored by high levels of N. Intraspecific competition reduced biomass, 100-seed weight and number of tillers of wild oat. Both lower N rate and intraspecific competition had negative effect on wild oat growth but the weed was still able to produce a considerable number of tillers and vigorous seeds. It showed that wild oat possess a notable adaptive plasticity and can allocate a greater proportion of its resource toward reproductive organs even under resource shortage conditions and, thus, it may increase the competitive ability of the weed over the crop.Our results suggest that effective weed management should be done to prevent wild oat seed production in crops preceding oilseed rape as well as to control the weed at early season in oilseed rape fields.

In organic agriculture, cover crops are used for weed control. Cover crops inhibited weed germination or growth by allelopathy or shading effects. In this study, we used rye as cover crop to control weed in organic soybean field. The main treatment was rye using method such as living mulch, incorporating and mowing. Sub-treatment was rye planting density and soybean planting density. One month after soybean sowing, weed emergency and growth had been highly suppressed by rye in all treatments. Living mulch treatment was the best effective way to control the weed about 92%, and mowing treatment was the second about 75% compare to control. The weed control efficiency between rye planting densities was similar during one month. Soybean planting density treatment was same result as rye planting density. As a result of this experiment, we recommend rye as living mulch in one row planting.

When rice straw was mulched, the inhibition of weed growth was observed in the barley field. This study was carried to indentify the influence of rice straw extract on germination, shoot and root growth of barley and water foxtail, according to extraction rate, temperature, growth stage, variety and soaking time. The inhibition rate of germination, shoot and root length of barley and water foxtail was higest in rice straw extract of $24^{\circ}C$, 5hours, 10%(w/v). Daerimbyeo's extract among 17 rice varieties inhibited growth of barley most, but Anjoongbyeo's was lowest. Among five growth stages, extract at seedling stages inhibited growth of barly and water foxtail most. Among 10 barley varieties, Seaolbori showed the greatest growth inhibition by rice straw extract.

We studied to compare with the effect on the shoot growth and yield relavant to weed control methods in peach. As the results about 10 day intervals and 3 times investigation after each primary treatment, treatment plot of 2 times and 3 times with the herbicide, glufosinate ammonium, were 98.2~98.6% into $10^{th}$ day, 78.6~79.6% into $20^{th}$ day, 40.7~41.1% into $30^{th}$ day, fabric covering treatment showed 100%, 100% and 97.5% and treatment plot of machinery weeding were 92.1%, 56.4% and 36.4%, respectively. Also, we compared shoot growth for pre- and post-harvest. In the results, most of weed control methods showed better growth than control. Thus, the average number of standard fruits for treatment plot of 2 times with the herbicide and that of machinery weeding was different significantly in relation to control. Therefore, we think that the herbicide henceforth is well worth the application because treatment of 2 times or 3 times with the herbicide showed significant the control effect against all of 14 weed species surveyed in peach orchard and thus no inhibition for growth and number of standard fruits in peach trees.
