| Abstract | ||||
| The present study was carried out at Kom-Ombo Agricultural Research Station Farm, Aswan Governorate, Agricultural Research Centre, Giza, Egypt, to evaluate the herbicide treatments on different weed species in sugarcane fields and their control methods on yield and quality of sugarcane. The obtained results revealed that, the weed species observed in the sugarcane field were twelve weed species belonging to nine families. Out of them three species belong to the broad leaved perennial weeds (Convolulus arvensis L., Sesbania sesban L., and Ipomoea cairica L.) while six species belong to the broad- leaved annual weeds ( Hibiscus trionum L. , Corchorus sp, Euphorbia geniculate L., Portulaca oleraceae L. , Sida alba L., and Datura stramonium L.) were observed. The grass perennial weeds were presented by two species (Cyperus rotundus L. , and Cynodon dactylon L.), while only one grass annual weed species were found ( Digitaria sanguinalis L.). Weed control treatments had a significant affected on broad leaved, narrow, and total weeds (g/m2) in both seasons. The application of herbicides affected the weed type and density but the response of different types of weeds varied to different herbicides. In addition, weeds control by herbicides treatments had a significant effect on cane, and sugarcane yield , brix, sucrose , purity and sugar recovery percentages in sugarcane . | ||||
