To manage the losses in wheat yield due to weed infestation, the Integrated weed program was designed, including the ideal agronomic practices, the standard herbicides for each crop in the rotation and two types of 3-years crop rotation during 1996 1999. The data revealed that, wheat plantation were infested by weed arised to 80 % specially the grassy weeds (Rye grass (Lolium multt/lorutn) and Wild oat (Avena sterilis)) and the wheat grain yield losses were between 12 — 100 % according to the total weeds coverage percentages, The optirnum program was achieved to minimize the weed population in this district including 3-years crop rotation (wheat / maize berseem / watermelon wheat / watermelon. | ||
