Aerobic rice production is a revolutionary way of rice cultivation in well-drained, non-
puddled, and non-saturated soils condition with very minimal water requirements. However,
weed is one of the most troublesome issues in aerobic rice field due to no standing water to
suppress weed germination upon early stage of rice development. To overcome this constraint and
plan for future weed management, fundamental studies of weed population growth under aerobic
rice is important. Two aerobic rice varieties, AERON 1 and MRIA 1 cultivated in three different
types of soils collected from three different fields around Malaysia were evaluated to identify
most dominance weed invasion in the glasshouse trial. Survey of weed population in the actual field
of aerobic rice was also carried out in order to check the similarities and difference of weed
infestation in control and uncontrolled environment. The most dominant weed species found in
glasshouse study and field survey regardless of soil textures and aerobic rice varieties were
Leptochloa chinensis and Cyperus iria. Controlling weeds during the critical period of crop
growth is one of the early steps in designing integrated weed management (IWM) and crucial
for better yield and quality. Hence, determinations of the critical period for weed control (CPWC)
study were conducted in main and off season by using a four parameter log-logistic model. Based on
5% Accepted Yield Loss (AYL), aerobic rice field should be weed free during 8 DAS to 45 DAS in the
off season while, 14 DAS to 41 DAS in the main season. The acceptable of 10% AYL in the off season
ranged from 12 DAS until 40 DAS in the off season while, 23 DAS until 37 DAS in the main
season. Experiment of weed-crop competition by using additive design was also carried out.
Identification of two most predominant weed species from experiment 1, Leptochloa chinensis and
Cyperus iria were used. Different level of weed infestation against constant aerobic rice
density was assessed. Infestation of Cyperus iria in aerobic rice MRIA 1 at 7 different levels of
weed density recorded higher impact on rice growth and production compared to Leptochloa chinensis
intervention based on the findings recorded. A total of 13 herbicides treatments consist of sequential application in single and combination
herbicide were tested to evaluate the response of weed flora towards different
approaches. A single application of herbicides such as Penoxsulam and Imazapyr-
isopropylammonium did not provided maximum control compared to the sequential application of
Bispyribac-sodium fb Bentazon/MCPA and Pretilachlor fb Propanil/Thiobencarb. Study
of weed population in aerobic rice, critical period of weed control, weed-crop competition
and suitable herbicides application could help farmers in facing difficulties with weed management
along the cultivation seasons. Besides that, these approaches will enable weed scientists
to make an important contribution towards the development of weed control options
with minimal herbicides doses. Thus, awareness on the importance of improved cultural practices,
their impact on weed suppression, and benefits to the ecosystem would be helpful in
the implementation of crop interference strategies. |
