Investigation of The Effects of Some Herbicides Treatments on Yield Against Common Weeds in Sugar Beet Planting Areas of Bayburt Province

Abstract

The study was carried out in Bayburt Central district in 2024 in order to determine the effects of some herbicides applied against weed species emerging in sugar beet production areas in Bayburt province on yield. A treatment plot consisting of 40 plots, including weedy and weed-free controls with 8 characters and 5 replications, totaling 20 m², representing the sugar beet cultivation areas of Bayburt province, was established using a Randomized Block Treatment Design. In these plots, the effects of herbicides with different active ingredients on sugar beet development, yield, and sugar content were comparatively evaluated. As a result of the research, the most densely populated weed species identified in the sugar beet treatment area in Bayburt province were Sinapis arvensis L. (Wild mustard), Chenopodium album L. (Lamb's quarters), and Amaranthus retroflexus L. (Redroot pigweed). The weed-free control plot (hand plucking) in the study area stood out as the most effective method for weed control. In chemical control, herbicide mixtures containing 400 g L-1 Metamitron + 55 g L-1 Ethofumesate + 35 g L-1 Phenmedipham and 350 g L-1 Metamitron + 150 g L-1 Ethofumesate were found to be particularly effective against these weed species. Sugar beet development was positively affected in the plots where these applications were applied, and increases in yield and sugar content were observed. In weedy controlled plots, sugar beet yield and quality rates were found to be quite low due to the maximum weed density.
