A RESEARCH ON THE EFFECTS OF PESTICIDES AND WOOD VINEGAR ON WEEDS AND CULTIVATED PLANTS IN WHEAT AGRO-ECOSYSTEM

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the effects of pesticides and wood vinegar that are used for the plant protection in wheat agro-ecosystems on weeds and cultivated plants in 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 production seasons in Muş Province ecological conditions. The field experiment was done in wheat field according to randomized block design with four repetition. Treatments in the experiment was based on the pesticides used by BERCE Alparslan agricultural enterprise and treatment schedule of the company. These treatments were: 1) Pesticide treatment (fungicide, herbicide), 2) 0.5% - 1% - 2% - 3% - 4% and 5% ml wood vinegar treatments that correspond to pesticide treatment, 3) Control treatment with tap water. It was observed that when compared to control group, pesticide treatment decreased weeds the number of, variety and the dry weight (P=0.002), however, it significantly increased values such as grain size, number of seed per spica, grain yield per spica and harvest index (%) of cultivated plants (P≤0.05). On the other hand, use of 1% ml wood vinegar had a significant effect on higher yield index (P≤0.05).
