Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBioethanol Production from Graminoid Weeds in Bayero University Kano: A Potential Feedstock for Future Sustainable Aviation Fuel ApplicationsAdam Salihu Kila, Sa’idu Hassan Musa, Umar Aliyu Ahmed et al.This study evaluates the potential of selected graminoid weeds from Bayero University, Kano (BUK), Nigeria, as feedstock for bioethanol production. Ten (10) abundant weed species, including Cenchrus species, Cynodon dactylon, and Setaria barbata, were subjected to physicochemical pretreatment (ultrasonication, hydrothermal treatment, and enzymatic hydrolysis) followed by fermentation using Bacillus subtilis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and their co-culture. Pretreatment significantly enhanced reducing sugar … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 15 Jul 2026 · 1,170 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Integrated Weed Management on Yield and Yield Component of Bread Wheat in Guji Zone, Southern OromiaLulu Misgana, Yared Tesfaye, Dagne Abu et al.Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important food crops in the world, providing a staple food for over 35% of the global population; in Ethiopia, however, production in highland regions like the Guji zone is severely constrained by heavy weed infestation, causing significant yield gaps. While Integrated Weed Management (IWM) is a promising solution, locally validated … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 5 Dec 2025 · 3,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleApplications of Artificial Intelligence Based Technologies in Weed and Pest DetectionNidhi Gupta, Bharat Gupta et al.Unprecedented population growth and climate change has burdened food security and scarcity worldwide, where the agriculture sector can significantly contribute to accomplishing the demands and contribute to the economic growth of a country. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the agricultural domain. Pest and weed detection is significant to yielding good quality crops. The AI-based tools and technologies such as drones … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 6 · 2 Jul 2022 · 7,410 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleProductive and Economic Performances of Magelang Duck Fed on Fermented Kariba WeedAgus Setiadi, Siswanto Imam Santoso, Edjeng Suprijatna et al.The duck farming business faces the high feeding costs problem. Kariba Weed (KW) is an alternative feed that has been widely used as a source of ducks' feeding materials. However, a problem exists because KW contains high crude fibre. Fermented KW that contains microbes will reduce the crude fibre content, leading to a good quality of duck meat. This study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 21 Nov 2021 · 6,561 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWeed Management in Sesame Field (Sesamum indicum L) Using Wheat Straw and Tillage or no Tillage SystemsSrra'a Nsayef Muslim Al-Eqaili, Nabil Raheem Lahmod, Oda Hassuni EshkandiA field trial was achieved to test the response of weed and sesame crop to use wheat straw and tillage or no tillage systems. The experiment treatments were include; no tillage without straw, tillage without straw, tillage with straw, incorporated with soil and straw as cover crop (no tillage). The result shown that weed density and biomass have high significantly … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 12 Apr 2017 · 8,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Clean-Green Synthesis of Platinum Nanoparticles Utilizing a Pernicious Weed Lantana (Lantana Camara)Musthafa O. Mavukkandy, Sudip Chakraborty, Tasneem Abbasi, Shahid A. AbbasiA rapid, reproducible single step method is proposed for synthesizing platinum nanoparticles using an invasive weed lantana (Lantana camara, L). The method involves mixing of platinum (VI) solution, lantana leaf extract and ascorbic acid in appropriate concentrations and keeping the mixture at 95°C for 8 min. The collective action of ascorbic acid and leaf extract reduced the chloroplatinic acid to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 23 Feb 2016 · 10,447 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDEVELOPMENT OF A MACHINE VISION SYSTEM FOR WEED DETECTION DURING BOTH OF OFF-SEASON AND IN-SEASON IN BROADACRE NO-TILLAGE CROPPING LANDSHuajian Liu, Sang Heng Lee, Chris SaundersMore than half of the Australian cropping land is no-tillage and weed control within continuous no-tillage agricultural cropping area is becoming more and more difficult. A major problem is that the heavy herbicide usage causes some of more prolific weeds becoming more resistant to the regular herbicides and therefore more powerful and more expensive options are being pursued. To overcome … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 29 Jan 2014 · 8,112 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDEVELOPMENT OF A PROXIMAL MACHINE VISION SYSTEM FOR OFF-SEASON WEED MAPPING IN BROADACRE NO-TILLAGE FALLOWSH. Liu, C. Saunders, S. H. LeeWeeds are among the most significant and costly environmental threats in Australian agriculture. Weeds compete with crop plants for moisture, nutrients and sunlight and can have a detrimental impact on crop yields and quality if uncontrolled. The distribution, size, density and species of the weeds are often heterogeneous in the cropping land. Instead of uniformly spray the same type of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 26 Nov 2013 · 7,233 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluence of Seeding Rate on Weed Density in Soybean Planting System for Southeastern Coastal PlainsPawel Wiatrak, Guihua ChenProblem statement: Increasing seeding rates may help decrease weed pressure in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] wide row spacing. Approach: The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of five glyphosate-resistant soybean Maturity Groups (MG) (IV, V, VI, VII and VIII) and six seeding rates (68,000,136,000, 204,000, 272,000, 340,000 and 408,000 seeds ha-1) on weed density under dryland … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,944 accessesView PDFCite
