Parámetros hídricos del suelo para el control de malezas en potreros de megathyrsus maximus, El Carmen, Manabí.

Abstract

The objectives of this research project were to identify soil water parameters that influence weed control in Megathyrsus maximus paddocks. Through the correlational type of research, taking into account that if one variable changes, the others are affected, using qualitative and quantitative research methods to develop the correct interpretation of the variables to be measured such as wilting time and regrowth time. Once the moisture concentration had been measured and identified, the chemical control was prepared, consisting of 72cc of Aminamont 720 plus 0.65g of malban, diluted in 20 L and applied in doses of 1.11 L for each treatment; After the moisture measurement and application of the chemical control, data are taken on the time it takes for the weeds to wither and regrow. The data collected in the field are entered into a statistical comparison program to perform the corresponding comparison tests, once the appropriate tests are applied and performed for the investigation; The results show that there was no significant difference between treatments for wilting and regrowth time, Since effective control was achieved in all of them, with a slight difference by days, we recommend any of the treatments for weed control in Megathyrsus maximus paddocks.
