The invention relates to a method for planting crops, in particular to a method for simultaneously controlling weeds and planting target plants by utilizing plant materials.
The conventional planting methods for such as crops are planting after soil ploughing or zero tillage planting. Weeds grow along with cultivated plants and compete with plants for sunshine, water, and fertilizer, and are one of the main harmful organisms that affect the growth of cultivated plants. There are more than 1,400 kinds of weeds, and there are more than 200 kinds of weeds in paddy fields. Among them, barnyardgrass, difformed galingale, sheathed Monochoria, eared redstem, chinese sprangletop, and climbing seedbox are particularly harmful (
At present, the control of weeds in farmland in China mainly relies on herbicides, and the efficacy of chemical weed control is getting worse and worse. Although the Ministry of Agriculture is implementing the “Double Reduction of Pesticides and Fertilizers”, it is difficult to reduce the amount of herbicides. In 2015, the amount of herbicides used increased by about 20% compared with that in 2010, reaching 107,000 tons (in pure volume) (Fang Shu, Mei Han. General situation of pesticide market in China in 2010 and its prospect in 2011[J]. China Plant Protection, 2011, 32(3):37-39; Fang Shu. Analysis of the general situation of pesticide production and use in my country in 2015[J]. Pesticide market news, 2016(21)). At present, the main reason why weeds are difficult to control is their herbicide resistance. As of May 2018, 254 species of weeds in the world have developed resistance to 163 herbicides (Heap, I. The International Survey of Herbicide Resistant Weeds. Online. Internet. (2018 May 30) URL: http://www.weedscience.org), the problem of weed resistance has aroused widespread concern and concern all over the world. Weed resistance in China has increased rapidly in the past 10 years. So far, 30 species of weeds have developed resistance to 48 herbicides in 11 categories. Among them, the vicious barnyardgrass in paddy fields has developed resistance to 14 commonly used herbicides (Zhu J, Wang J, Ditommaso A, et al. Weed research status, challenges, and opportunities in China [J]. Crop Protection, 2018. DOI: 10.1016/j.cropro.2018.02.001). The amount of chemical fertilizer used is very large. In 2016, the amount of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizer used was as high as 23.105 million tons and 8.3 million tons (in pure volume). Although the huge amount of chemical fertilizer application has ensured the continuous high yield of grain, its utilization rate is very low. Serious waste of chemical fertilizers not only increases production costs, but also exacerbates environmental degradation.
China has a wide variety of plants, and is rich in straw and other plant resources. It is the world's largest straw country, and the total amount of crop straw that can be collected is as high as 900 million tons. However, the treatment of straws of such as crops is a long-term problem. The current treatment method is mainly incineration, which not only causes serious waste of straw resources, but also seriously pollutes the environment. The utilization rate of other plant resources also needs to be improved.
In order to improve the utilization rate of plant resources, the conventional method puts the straw in the field back into the soil, which effectively utilizes the straw resources, but has little control efficacy on the weeds in the field.
In order to effectively solve the problem of harmful weeds, the Chinese patent CN106342612A previously applied by the inventor disclosed a method for controlling weeds in paddy fields by mulching oilseed rape straw (application number: CN201610733699.1), covering sun-dried and sheared oilseed rape straw or oilseed rape pods and their mixtures after rice has been planted for a certain period of time can play a role in controlling weeds, but there are obvious limitations (
Another conventional method is that when the harvester harvests the previous crop, the straw is cut and covered on the ground, and then the seed of the subsequent crop is planted in the soil below the straw with the seeder. The method is shown in
As people pay more and more attention to the safety of agricultural products and ecological security, environmentally friendly weed control methods are developed in the practice of weed control, such as biological control, physical control and other weed control methods. However, these methods all have some defects or limitations, therefore cannot meet the needs of large-scale weed control in agricultural production.
In agricultural production, the target plants are planted in the soil in conventional planting technology, and the weed control efficacy of the existing technology is not ideal, and the planting survival rate of target plants such as rice is not high, especially the labor cost is high. The technology in the prior art cannot achieve three effects at the same time: low-cost, controlling weeds and ensuring the survival rate of target plants.
The “control of weeds” in the present invention refers to controlling the harmful effect of weeds to the growth of target plants according to the following standard: 10 days after taking measures to control weeds, and 15 days after planting of the target plants to before harvesting, the weed density is lower than 200 plant/m2, weed density reduction ≥50% and less than 80%, or weed fresh biomass reduction ≥50% and less than 80%. “Guaranteed survival rate of target plants” refers to the survival rate of target plants ≥10%. The survival rate is calculated as: the survival rate of plants=the number of surviving plants/the total number of planted plants*100%.
In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for simultaneously controlling weeds and planting target plants by utilizing plant materials. This method changes the conventional method, makes full use of plant resources such as crop straw, and plants the target plants on the surface of the plant material layer or in the plant material layer. Weeds are controlled when they are the most vulnerable, and the water content of the plant material layer, and the water content during each specific period (covering period, the period of planting crops, and after planting) is accurately controlled, especially there is the synergistic effect of different planting methods for different target plants. At the same time, the method achieves low cost, controls weeds and ensures the survival rate of planting target plants, which solved the problem of existing technology. Specifically, taking the planting of rice as an example, the present invention can achieve a very good results that the weed density reduction can reach up to 99.1% at 30 days after planting, and the rice survival rate at 10 days after planting can reach 100% (see Example 41). Moreover, another unexpected effect brought about by the method of the present invention is that the operation is simple and convenient. After the previous crop is harvested, the straw is directly pulverized, and the straw are scattered in the field on-site, and then the next target plant can be planted after irrigating for an appropriate time. The agricultural time is greatly saved, farming time and labor are saved. When the technology of the present invention is used to plant direct seeded rice, the labor cost per 666.7 m2 is saved by 540 yuan compared with the prior art. The effect of increasing crop production and income is very significant. It cleverly solves the technical problems in production, provides an almost perfect solution for the planting of green and organic agricultural products, and represents the future development direction of green planting technology.

The initial stem-root differentiation point of the plant: the boundary between the stem and the root system on the seedling in the early stage of plant germination, from which upside is the stem and downside is the root system (as shown in
The height of the initial stem-root differentiation point of the plant: the vertical distance from the initial stem-root differentiation point of the plant to the plane of the carrier except for the plant material, expressed as HP.
If the soil surface is covered with plant material, and then the target plant is cultivated in the plant material layer, HP refers to the vertical distance from the initial stem-root differentiation point to the soil surface (as shown in panel A, B, C, and D in
Detection method for the height of the initial stem-root differentiation point of plants:
Randomly select n representative plants of normal growth to be tested, where n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 30. Determine the position of the initial stem-root differentiation point, and use a ruler with a millimeter scale to measure the vertical distance between the initial stem-root differentiation point of each plant and the carrier plane other than the plant material layer. Calculate the average value of the n measured values as the value of the height of the initial stem-root differentiation point of the plant to be tested. When measuring the height of the initial stem-root differentiation point of weeds in the farmland, randomly select the normal growing weeds. When various species of weeds present, select n plants of various species of weeds in total, and preferably the number of each species of weeds is comparable (as shown in panel A, B, C, and D in
Stem base point: Stem base point is divided into three categories, for a plant with roots concentrating at the base of the stem (such as Lindernia procumbens (Krock.) Philcox), stem base point refers to the most bottom position on the stem without root system, visible to the naked eye, below which is root tissue or stem with root system (panel A in
Stem base point height: the vertical distance between the stem base point of the plant and the carrier plane other than the plant material layer. If the farmland is covered with plant material on the soil surface, and then the target plant is cultivated on the plant material layer, the stem base point height of the target plant refers to the vertical distance between the stem base point of the target plant and the soil surface (as shown in panel D in
Detection method of stem base point height: randomly select n representative plants of normal growth to be tested, n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 30.

Calculate the average value of n measured values as the stem base point height value of the plant to be tested. When measuring the stem base point height of weeds in the farmland, randomly select normal growing weeds.

The relative position of the stem base point and the plant material residue layer: the relative position of the stem base point of the normal growing plant and the vertical space of the plant material residue layer.
Detection method of relative position between stem base point and plant material residue layer: randomly select n representative plants of normal growth to be tested, n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 30. Determine the position of the upper and lower surfaces of the plant material residue layer, and use a ruler with a millimeter scale to measure the vertical distance between the upper and lower surfaces of the plant material residue layer, which is the thickness of the plant material residue layer (H). Determine the position of the stem base point of the plant to be tested, and use a ruler with a millimeter scale to measure the vertical distance (X) between the stem base point and the upper surface of the plant material residue layer. When the stem base point is higher than the upper surface, it is recorded as a positive value; when the stem base point is lower than the upper surface, it is recorded as a negative value. When the stem base point is lower than the lower surface of the plant material residue layer, it is recorded as less than −H, and it is not necessary to measure the specific value. Calculate the average value of the n measured values as the relative position value of the stem base point of the plant to be tested and the plant material residue layer. When X is greater than 0, it means that the stem base point is higher than the plant material residue layer; when X is less than 0, if the absolute value of X is less than H, it means that the stem base point is located in the plant material residue layer; if the absolute value of X is less than ⅓H, it means that the stem base point is located at upper ⅓ of the plant material residue layer; if the absolute value of X is greater than H, it means that the stem base point is located below the plant material residue layer.
Weeds: plants other than the intentionally cultivated target plant. For example, in a paddy field, plants other than rice were weeds (
Weed density: the number of weeds per unit area, usually refers to the number of weeds per square meter, the unit is “plant/m2”.
Detection method of weed density: when the area to be detected is 1 20 hectares or less, the detection is performed n days after the target plant is planted and before harvest, n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 10. Take 20 or more survey points in the area to be detected, each survey point has an area of 0.25 m2, which is determined by a square sampling frame with a side length of 50 cm formed by iron wire with a diameter of 2 mm or more. When selecting the survey points, when the number of fields in the area to be tested reaches 10 or higher, select 10 representative fields in different positions, and take 2 survey points on the diagonal line of each field; when the number of fields in the area to be detected is between 5 and 10, select 5 representative fields at different positions, and take 4 survey points on the double diagonal line of each field; when the number of fields in the area to be detected is less than 5, a considerable number of survey points are taken on the double diagonal line of each field. In addition, the survey point is 1 m or more away from the ridge or boundary. If necessary, the water in the field shall be drained before investigation until 90% or more of the area is not flooded by water. During the investigation, place the sampling frame horizontally at a height higher than the field plants, and then place the sampling frame vertically downward to the ground while keeping the sampling frame horizontal. During this process, if the sampling frame touches a plant, place the aboveground part of a plant into the frame wherein the base of the plant falls within the vertical projection range of the sampling frame, and move the aboveground part of a plant out the frame wherein the base of the plant falls outside the vertical projection range of the sampling frame. The number of surviving weeds in the sampling frame is investigated. When counting the number of weeds, the 10 cm or higher tillers of Gramineae and Cyperaceae weeds grow out from the 5 cm radius circle from the base of the main stem of a weed and within 10 cm from the ground is recorded as an independent plant; the 10 cm or higher branch of broadleaf weeds grow out from the 3 cm radius circle from the base of the main stem of a weed and within 5 cm from the ground is recorded as an independent plant. Weeds (such as Lemna minor L.) whose plants are completely floating on the water surface under normal growth conditions are not counted. Calculate the average number of weeds in the 20 survey points and convert it into the number of weeds per square meter as the weed density value in the area to be detected. When the area to be tested exceeds 20 hectares, each 20 hectares must be detected separately.
Weed density reduction: when measures are taken to control weeds, reduction percentage of weeds in the treated area compared with the untreated control, and the untreated control refers to not taking any weeding measures.
Detection method of weed density reduction: 10 days after taking measures to control weeds, and from n days after the target plant is planted to before harvest, n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 10. When there is no repetition in the experimental area, 10 or more survey points are taken on the double diagonal lines of the control area and the treatment area, respectively, and the area of each survey point is equal to 0.25 m2, a square sampling frame with a side length of 50 cm is formed by an iron wire with a diameter of equal to or higher than 2 mm is used to determine the area; when replicates were set in the experimental area, 3 or more survey points were taken on the double diagonal line of each replicated experimental area of the control and treatment group, respectively, and the total number of survey points of control and treatment group is 10 or more, respectively, and the area of each survey point was equal to 0.25 m2. In addition, the survey point is 1 m or more away from the ridge or boundary. If necessary, the water in the field shall be drained before investigation until 90% or more of the area is not flooded by water. During the investigation, place the sampling frame horizontally at a height higher than the field plants, and then place the sampling frame vertically downward to the ground while keeping the sampling frame horizontal. During this process, if the sampling frame touches a plant, place the aboveground part of a plant into the frame wherein the base of the plant falls within the vertical projection range of the sampling frame, and move the aboveground part of a plant out the frame wherein the base of the plant falls outside the vertical projection range of the sampling frame. The number of surviving weeds in the sampling frame is investigated. When counting the number of weeds, the 10 cm or higher tillers of Gramineae and Cyperaceae weeds grow out from the 5 cm radius circle from the base of the main stem of a weed and within 10 cm from the ground is recorded as an independent plant; the 10 cm or higher branch of broadleaf weeds grow out from the 3 cm radius circle from the base of the main stem of a weed and within 5 cm from the ground is recorded as an independent plant. Weeds (such as Lemna minor L.) whose plants are completely floating on the water surface under normal growth conditions are not counted. Calculate the average number of weeds in 10 or more survey points, and then calculate according to the following formula: Weed density reduction=(average number of weeds in control group−average number of weeds in treatment group)/average number of weeds in control group*100%.
Weed fresh biomass reduction: when measures are taken to control weeds, the reduction percentage of weeds fresh weight in the treated area compared with the untreated control group. The untreated control means that no weeding measures are taken.
Detection method of weed fresh biomass reduction: 10 days after taking measures to control weeds, and from n days after the target plant is planted to before harvest, n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 10. When there is no repetition in the experimental area, 10 or more survey points are taken on the double diagonal lines of the control area and the treatment area, respectively, and the area of each survey point is equal to 0.25 m2, a square sampling frame with a side length of 50 cm is formed by an iron wire with a diameter of equal to or more than 2 mm is used to determine the area; when replicates were set in the experimental area, 3 or more survey points were taken on the double diagonal line of each replicated experimental area of the control and treatment group, respectively, and the total number of survey points of control and treatment group is equal to or greater than 10, and the area of each survey point was equal to 0.25 m2. In addition, the survey point is equal to or greater than 1 m away from the ridge or boundary. If necessary, the water in the field should be drained before investigation until 90% or more of the area is not flooded by water, and 95% or more of the weed stems and leaves are free of water droplets. During the investigation, place the sampling frame horizontally at a height higher than the field plants, and then place the sampling frame vertically downward to the ground while keeping the sampling frame horizontal. During this process, if the sampling frame touches a plant, place the aboveground part of a plant into the frame wherein the base of the plant falls within the vertical projection range of the sampling frame, and move the aboveground part of a plant out the frame wherein the base of the plant falls outside the vertical projection range of the sampling frame. Use scissors to cut the aboveground parts of the weeds in the sampling frame, put them into plastic bags and seal the bags, and place them in a cool and dry place to avoid the loss of water in the samples as much as possible. Be sure to avoid the impact of soil and other debris on the weeds on the fresh weight of the weeds. If necessary, the clipped weed samples can be washed with water, and then the water on the weeds can be drained with absorbent paper. Within 2 hours after sampling, use a weighing tool with an accuracy of 0.01 or higher g to weigh the fresh weight of weeds, and keep two decimal places when recording the value. Calculate the average fresh weight of weeds in 10 or more survey points, and then calculate according to the following formula: weed fresh biomass reduction=(average fresh weight of weeds in control area−average fresh weight of weeds in treatment area)/average fresh weight of weeds in control area*100%.
Control weeds: Control the harmful effect of weeds to the growth of target plants. Its quantitative indicators are: 10 days after taking measures to control weeds, and 15 days after planting the target plant to before harvesting, the weed density is less than 200 plants/m2, the weed density reduction is ≥50% and less than 80%, or the weed fresh biomass reduction is ≥50% and less than 80%.
Effective weed control: It means that the harmful effect of weeds is effectively controlled, so that it basically does not affect the normal growth of target plants or the harmful effect is relatively light. Its quantitative indicators are: 10 days after taking measures to control weeds, and 15 days after planting the target plant to before harvesting, the weed density is less than 100 plants/m2, or the weed density reduction is ≥80% and less than 95%, or the weed fresh biomass reduction is ≥80% and less than 95%.
Complete weed control: means that the harmful effect of weeds is completely controlled so that the harmful effects to the target plants is minimal. The quantitative indicators are: 10 days after taking measures to control weeds, and 15 days after planting the target plant to before harvesting, the weed density is lower than 25 plants/m2, or the weed density reduction is ≥95%, or the weed fresh biomass reduction ≥95%.

Different from the prior art, the method of the present invention for simultaneously controlling weeds and planting target plants is to place plant material first and then plant the target plants, which is more beneficial to controlling weeds than the prior art. One of the characteristics of weeds is the accumulation of huge numbers of weed seeds that have fallen into the soil over the years, the so-called weed “seed bank” in the soil, once there is bare soil and suitable temperature, water and light conditions, weed seeds will germinate and grow, and most weeds emerge first and then, and the emergence can last for a long time, making it extremely difficult to control. Through precisely controls the water content of the plant material layer at each specific period (covering period, immediately before planting the target plant, after planting), especially the synergistic effect of different planting methods for different target plants, the present invention achieves low cost, weed control and survival rate of planting target plants at the same time, solves the problems of the prior art. First, the present invention covers the ground surface with plant material (preferably the straw and other wastes of the previous target plant) to shade the ground when the target plant is harvested or after harvesting, or immediately after soil preparation, avoids weed seeds from being exposed to light to relieve from dormancy to the greatest extent, reduces the number of weeds emerging, and inhibits photosynthesis of weeds that have sprouted. Second, the present invention covers the plant material on the weeds when they are most vulnerable in the early stage of emergence, and has a better efficacy of suppressing the weeds. And because the target plant has not been planted when plant material covering is performed, the above operation does not cause any safety problem for the subsequent planting of the target plant. In the prior art, the preferred time for straw mulching is 4˜6 days after direct seeding of rice. At such time, the vicious weed barnyardgrass has emerged and has a height of 2 cm or more, which can easily get out of control (
The invention skillfully utilizes the overall synergistic effect of plant material and water content in each specific period (covering period, immediately before planting the target plant, and after planting) to further improve the weed control efficacy, and avoids adverse effects on target plants. In the present invention, the covering plant material is not necessary to dry, and water must be added during the covering period, so that the plant material can absorb water to the greatest extent and be in a state of infiltration or flooding. The weight of dry oilseed rape straw after absorbing water can reach nearly 6 times the original weight (Table 4,
The invention exploits and utilizes the comprehensive effect of steric hindrance of the target plant above and the weed below to control weeds. For example, in the case of planting the target plant after the plant material covering in the field, the target plant of the present invention is planted in the plant material layer, and the weed seeds are in the carrier (soil) below the plant material, resulting in a synergistic effect, one is that the target plant is an object pressing on the “head” of the weed, and its gravity is the resistance that the weed needs to overcome to grow upward; second, the stems and leaves of the target plants not only play a role in shading, but also the far-red light in the sunlight that is not absorbed by the upper target plants can inhibit the germination of weed seeds. The third is the huge and dense root group after the target plant grows, which forms another barrier to prevent the later germinating weeds from growing upward, and has the effect of gravity suppression and light blocking (
An outstanding advantage of the present invention is that it pioneers and utilizes the combined effect of the steric hindrance of the target plants above and the weeds below to control weeds. For example, in the case of planting the target plant after covering the plant material in the field, the target plant of the present invention is planted in the plant material layer, and the weed seeds are in the carrier (soil) below the plant material. The combined effect is that the target plant is an object pressing on the “top” of the weed, and its gravity is the resistance that the weed needs to overcome to grow upward; second, the stems and leaves of the target plants not only play a role in shading, but also the far-red light in the sunlight that is not absorbed by the upper target plants can inhibit the germination of weed seeds. The third is the huge and dense root group after the target plant grows, which forms another barrier to prevent the later germinating weeds from growing upward, and has the effect of gravity suppression and light blocking (
An outstanding advantage of the present invention is that it simplifies farming operations, saves time, saves a lot of labor costs, and reduces huge energy consumption. The present invention can avoid certain steps such as drying of plant materials when ploughing and planting. On the other hand, after the target plants are harvested, fresh straw and other plant materials can be used for covering on the ground on-site without tillage, and the target plants can be planted after adding water, which is a major technological innovation in light plant cultivation. Heavy and time-consuming crop cultivation operations are greatly simplified, greatly reducing the labor and material resources for removing straw, ploughing land, soil preparation, straw drying, bagging and transportation in the prior art, and saves a lot of time and makes the most of the precious plant growing season. It also greatly reduces the energy consumption of the existing technology in removing straw, ploughing land, soil preparation, straw drying and transportation. Machinery (such as a harvester) can be used to complete harvesting and plant material crushing and broadcasting in one step, and the efficiency is further greatly improved, representing the future development direction of the deep integration of green planting technology and mechanization (Table 10).
An outstanding advantage of the present invention is the technical support provided for conducting disaster-resistant weed control. For a long time, my country's farmland weed control has mainly relied on pesticides, and the development of new herbicides is very difficult. In recent years, herbicide-resistant weeds have developed rapidly, and it is difficult to find effective prevention and control measures that can be applied in a large area. In some places, food losses are serious. The invention can effectively prevent and control herbicide-resistant weeds, and delay the weeds from developing herbicide-resistance.
One of the outstanding advantages of the present invention is that it can greatly reduce using of pesticide and fertilizer, improve the quality of agricultural products, recycle plant materials, and improve the ecological environment. At present, due to the increasing number of herbicide-resistant weeds and their distribution more and more widely, some farmers have no choice but to increase the dosage of herbicides, and the increase of selection pressure promotes the development of herbicide resistance faster, such a vicious circle causes the reduction of herbicides very difficult. The invention has ideal weed control efficacy, can greatly reduce the use of herbicides or even eliminate the use of herbicides, and reduce the pollution of chemical pesticides. In addition, after decomposing the plant materials of the invention, the soil fertility can be improved, the soil bulk density can be reduced, the soil organic matter content can be increased, and the chemical fertilizer dosage can be gradually reduced. Therefore, significantly improving the quality of agricultural products and improving the ecological environment will have a profound impact on the development of sustainable agriculture in my country.
An outstanding advantage of the present invention is that it has ideal weed control efficacy (
An outstanding advantage of the present invention is that the plant material is placed first and then the target plant is planted, which is more beneficial for weed control than the prior art. One of the characteristics of weeds is the accumulation of huge numbers of weed seeds that have fallen into the soil over the years, the so-called weed “seed bank” in the soil, once there is bare soil and suitable temperature, water and light conditions, weed seeds will germinate and grow, and most weeds emerge first and then, and the emergence can last for a long time, making it extremely difficult to control. First, the present invention can cover the ground surface with plant material (preferably the straw and other wastes of the previous target plant) to shade the ground when the target plant is harvested or after harvesting, or immediately after soil preparation, avoid weed seeds from being exposed to light to relieve from dormancy to the greatest extent, reduce the number of weeds emerging, and inhibit photosynthesis of weeds that have sprouted. Second, the present invention can cover the plant material on the weeds when they are most vulnerable in the early stage of emergence, and has a better efficacy of suppressing the weeds. And because the target plant has not been planted when plant material covering is performed, the above operation does not cause any safety problem for the subsequent planting of the target plant. In the prior art, the preferred time for straw mulching is 4-6 days after direct seeding of rice. At such time, the vicious weed barnyard grass has emerged and has a height of 2 cm or more, which can easily get out of control (
An outstanding advantage of the present invention is that the synergistic weed control efficacy of plant material and water is cleverly utilized to further improve the weed control efficacy while avoiding adverse effects on target plants. In the present invention, the covering plant material is not necessary to dry, and water must be added during the covering period, so that the plant material can absorb water to the greatest extent and be in a state of infiltration or flooding. The weight of dry oilseed rape straw after absorbing water can reach nearly 6 times the original weight (Table 4,
The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. For those skilled in the art, obvious transformations and replacements belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
The invention provides a method for simultaneously controlling weeds and planting target plants by utilizing plant materials, in the present invention, plant material is placed on the surface of the carrier (such as soil) (
In a preferred embodiment, different types of weeds can be controlled requiring different thicknesses of said plant material layers. For example, under the condition of no water layer, in order to obtain 95% or more of the weed control efficacy for Leptochloa chinensis, Ammannia auriculata, Cyperus difformis, Ludwigia prostrata and etc., covering the mixture of oilseed rape straw and oilseed rape pod is needed, and the covering thickness is 0.72 cm (600 g/m2), 0.84 cm (700 g/m2), 0.96 cm (800 g/m2), 1.08 cm (900 g/m2), respectively (
Further, the target plant is planted between the day (T=0 day) the plant material layer is placed and 12 months after the plant material layer is placed; preferably, the target plant is planted between the day (T=0 day) the plant material layer is placed and 30 days after the plant material layer is placed; more preferably, the target plant is planted between 1 day (T=1 day) to 10 days after the plant material layer is placed.

Indicators and Detection
1) When the target plant is planted with a reproductive organ, before the plant material is completely decomposed, the initial stem-root differentiation point of the target plant is visible to the naked eye in the plant material layer or higher than the plant material layer, after the seedling of the target plant emerges, the stem base point is in or above the plant material layer.
2) When the target plant is planted by seedling placings, throwing seedlings, or transplanting seedlings, before the plant material is completely decomposed, the stem base point of the target plant is visible to the naked eye in the plant material layer or higher than the plant material layer.
3) When planting the target plant, the target plant is visible to the naked eye on the surface of the plant material layer or in the plant material layer, and the reproductive organs of the weeds are located under the plant material layer, forming a sandwich structure.
4) After planting the target plant, when weeds occur, before the plant material is completely decomposed, it is visible to the naked eye that the initial stem-root differentiation point of 95% of the weeds is located under the plant material layer.
5) After planting the target plant, when the covering thickness of the plant material reaches 0.9 cm, when weeds occur, it is visible to the naked eye that the initial stem-root differentiation point of 95% of the target plants is 0.5 cm or more higher than the initial stem-root differentiation point of the weeds, and/or within 25 days after the target plant is planted, the stem base point of 95% of the target plants is higher than the weed stem base point by 0.8 cm or more.
6) When the covering thickness of the plant material reaches 0.9 cm, at the end of the uniform covering of the plant material, it is visible to the naked eye that 95% of the carrier area is covered by the plant material, and the carrier (such as soil) cannot be seen.
The difference between the present invention and the prior art is:
Experiments are carried out in a greenhouse. The culture medium peat soil, vermiculite, and perlite were mixed uniformly in a ratio of 3:1:1, and the oilseed rape straw were crushed with a machine until the longest side was 1 cm long. The plastic pots are 18 cm in diameter and have 3 small holes at the bottom. Each pot is filled with a substrate depth of 3 cm, placed in a large plastic square pot, and water is added to the square pot to make the water surface level with the surface of the substrate in the small pot. Each small pot was sown with 50 barnyardgrass seeds, and the straw thickness was 0.84 cm (700 g/m2) and 1.08 cm (900 g/m2) on the day, 1 d, and 2 d after sowing, respectively. There were 6 covering treatments in total. The non-covering control (CK) was not covered by straw, with four replicates per treatment. Water was sprinkled in the morning, noon and evening every day to keep the straw moist but without a water layer. The number of seedlings in each treatment was investigated 12 days after barnyardgrass sowing.
The results showed that the weed density reduction of oilseed rape straw covering on barnyardgrass was greatly affected by straw covering time, and the inhibition efficacy was the best if covering is performed on the day of sowing, and the inhibition rate was 92.47% or more when the covering thickness was 0.84 cm and 1.08 cm (Table 2). With the delay of covering time, the inhibitory efficacy was significantly reduced. The weed density reduction when the covering with a thickness of 1.08 cm is performed at 1 and 2 days after sowing (DAS) decreased by 19.18 and 31.37 percentage points, respectively, compared with the covering performed on the day after sowing. In addition, the difference in inhibition rate was small between the covering performed the day of sowing and 1 DAS with thickness of 0.84 and 1.08 cm, while the difference between the two with 2 DAS covering was larger, reaching 12.18 percentage points. The inhibitory efficacy on weeds is limited when the water content of plant material is as follows: the plant material (straw) is moist by sprinkling but not infiltrated, and there is no water layer.
Experiments are carried out in a greenhouse. The culture medium peat soil, vermiculite, and perlite are mixed uniformly in a ratio of 3:1:1, and oilseed rape straw and oilseed rape pod are both cut to 1 cm on the longest side by a machine and mixed uniformly in a ratio of 2.5:1 for use. The plastic pots are 18 cm in diameter and have 3 small holes at the bottom. Each pot is filled with a substrate depth of 3 cm, placed in a large plastic square pot, and water is added to the square pot to make the water surface level with the surface of the substrate in the pot. Straw covering tests were carried out on five weeds, barnyardgrass, chinese sprangletop, eared redstem, climbing seedbox, difformed galingale, and the covering treatment was conducted 1 day after weeds sowing. The specific experimental design is shown in Table 3, and each treatment was repeated four times. Weed seeds are mixed with fine sand and sown. After sowing, the oilseed rape straw mixture is evenly sprinkled at the corresponding time, and water is sprinkled to keep the straw moist but without water layer. The number of barnyardgrass was investigated 10 days after covering, the number of chinese sprangletop was investigated 20 days after covering, and the number of plants of eared redstem, climbing seedbox, and difformed galingale were investigated 30 days after covering.
The results show that: when the plant material (straw) is kept moist by sprinkling but not infiltrated and without a water layer, in order to achieve a weed control efficacy of 95% or more, the control of chinese sprangletop, eared redstem, difformed galingale, and climbing seedbox, should be covered with the mixture of oilseed rape straws and oilseed rape pods with a thickness of 0.72 cm, 0.84 cm, 0.96 cm, 1.08 cm, respectively (
The test was carried out under laboratory conditions, during which the temperature was between 24° C. and 28° C. and the air humidity was between 50% and 85%. First, basic dry and spare plant materials, the oilseed rape straws and oilseed rape pods with an average size of no more than 1 cm were dried at 80° C. for 8 h, and then 50 g of each were weighed and put into nylon mesh bags respectively, and weighed (W1); fully immerse the mesh bag in clean water, take out the mesh bag after different time intervals, weigh when the mesh bag does not drip (W2), and then put the mesh bag back into the water. The weights of oilseed rape straws and oilseed rape pods after soaking in water for different times were W=50+W2−W1.
The results showed that oilseed rape straw and oilseed rape pods absorbed water quickly, and they were basically saturated after 48 hours of water absorption; the weights of oilseed rape straw and oilseed rape pods were 5.95 and 5.12 times their dry weight after 54 hours of water absorption (Table 4).
The following takes the direct seeding method of rice seeds as an example (Table 5) to illustrate the essential difference between the present invention and the prior art. Similarly, taking the rice seedling planting method as an example (Table 6), it is illustrated that the present invention is also substantially different from the prior art.
Experiment 1. Field Plot Experiment of Rice Cultivation with Plant Material
Field trials were carried out in direct seeding rice fields in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. The oilseed rape straws were sun-dried and cut into stem segments with a length of 0.1˜1 cm. The paddy field was drained after soil preparation, and four doses of oilseed rape straw covering were carried out on the day of soil preparation: 3.6 cm (300 g/m2), 6.0 cm (500 g/m2), 8.4 cm (700 g/m2), and 1.08 cm (900 g/m2). Then irrigate to moisten the straw. On the third day after straw covering, 10 kg of urea and 40 kg of compound fertilizer (including N+P2O5+K2O) were applied per 666.7 m2 paddy field, and then the germinated rice seeds were sown. No herbicides are used. Otherwise the paddy fields are managed according to conventional methods. The area of each treatment plot was 12 m2, and the following 5 treatments were set up, each repeated 3 times. The rice variety is Xiushui 134, and the main control objects are barnyardgrass, chinese sprangletop, climbing seedbox, sheathed Monochoria, pygmy arrowhead, eared redstem, manyflower Ammannia, difformed galingale, miliumlike Fimbristylis, indian Rotala, procumbent falsepimperne, yerbadetajo and etc.
Treatment 1. Sow rice 3 days after oilseed rape straw (300 g/m2) covering.
Treatment 2. Sow rice 3 days after oilseed rape straw (500 g/m2) covering.
Treatment 3. Sow rice 3 days after oilseed rape straw (700 g/m2) covering.
Treatment 4. Sow rice 3 days after oilseed rape straw (900 g/m2) covering.
CK. Blank Control.
20 days after rice sowing, 3 points on the diagonal line of each plot were selected to investigate the number of rice plants, and the area of each point was 0.25 m2 (50*50 cm).
40 days after sowing of rice, 3 points on the diagonal line of each plot were selected, with the area of each point 0.25 m2 (50*50 cm), to investigate the number of surviving weeds and the fresh weight of the shoots, and calculate the weed density reduction and weed fresh biomass reduction.
The specific results are shown in Table 7 and Table 8.
From the results in Table 7, it can be seen by the investigation on 20 days after rice sowing that the oilseed rape straw covering of 300, 500, 700 and 900 g/m2 before rice seeding has little effect on the emergence of rice, and the survival rate of rice is equivalent to 94.1% or more of the control. And different amounts of oilseed rape straw covering had no obvious adverse effects on the plant height and tillering of rice seedlings. This shows that it is feasible to cover with oilseed rape straw (300˜900 g/m2) before sowing, which is safe for the emergence of rice and the growth of seedlings.
The results are shown in Table 8. For oilseed rape straw covering of 300, 500, 700 and 900 g/m2 before rice seeding, the control efficacy on weeds in paddy field, investigated 40 days after rice sowing, is increased with the increase of the amount of oilseed rape straw. The control efficacy of oilseed rape straw covering of 300, 500, 700 and 900 g/m2 was ideal, and the weed density reduction was 80.9%, 90.3%, 97.3 and 98.1%, respectively, and the weed fresh biomass reduction was 84.7%, 91.0%, 98.4% and 98.9%, respectively. This shows that oilseed rape straw covering before rice seeding can effectively control the harmful effects of weeds in paddy fields.
In order to illustrate that the present invention can be applied to the above-mentioned target plants and control the above-mentioned weeds, the comparison of the planting for 26 species of target plants and weed control efficacy carried out by the method of the present invention is shown in Table 9:
The survival rate of 26 target plants in soil was tested in comparative examples.
In the process of planting the target plant in the present invention, a substance that can provide the nutrients required for the growth of the target plant is applied, which is referred to as “plant nutrition” for short. The methods of applying plant nutrition include but are not limited to applying below the plant material layer, in the middle of the plant material layer or mixing with the plant material layer, applying on the plant material layer, or mixing with the reproductive organs or roots of the target plant.
Further, the dosage of applying the plant nutrition as described above is mainly considered in combination with two factors. On one hand, the carbon-nitrogen ratio of the plant material is considered. A carbon-nitrogen ratio (C/N) of the plant material of 25:1 is more favorable for the microorganisms to decompose the plant material. If the carbon-nitrogen ratio of the plant material layer is too high, it is unfavorable for microorganisms to decompose the plant material, and the microorganisms will utilize nitrogen in the soil, thereby affecting the growth of target plants. In view of the fact that the carbon-nitrogen ratio of most of the plant materials is too high, when the covering thickness of the plant material layer is 0.5 cm, nitrogen should be supplemented for every 666.7 m2, which is equivalent to 10˜20 kg of urea, when the covering thickness of the plant material layer increases, the nitrogen that needs to be supplemented increases correspondingly.
On the other hand, the nutrients required for the early growth of the target plants is considered. The plant nutrients need to be supplemented before and/or after the target plants are planted, and 20˜80 kg of compound fertilizer (N+P2O5+K2O≥45%) should be applied per 666.7 m2 area.
The above field test results show that the oilseed rape straw covering before direct seeding of rice in the present invention is safe for the emergence of rice and the growth of seedlings (the survival rate of seedlings is high), and can effectively control the harm of weeds in rice fields, which is an ideal new method for controlling weeds in paddy fields.
In order to compare the comprehensive efficacy of the present invention and the prior art, a large-scale test of 666.7 m2 field was carried out. A comprehensive comparison between the present invention and the prior art is listed below, see Table 10.
Example 44 to Example 139 and Comparative Example 13 to Comparative Example 17: first place the plant material and then plant the target plant;
Comparative example 18 refers to the conditions of Chinese Patent CN106342612A, which firstly plants rice, and then broadcasts the plant material, and do not control the water content of the plant material after the broadcasting.
For the target plants planted in Examples 44˜139, the height of the initial stem-root differentiation point of the plant is greater than 2 mm.
