Abstract:Environmentally friendly weed control is highly recommended to be implemented in agriculture. The objective of this research was to assess the herbicidal efficacy of n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol extracts derived from the tuber of Cyperus rotundus L. on Amaranthus spinosus L. The tuber was consecutively extricated with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol. These extracts were given to A. spinosus in pot culture at concentrations of 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%.The herbicide (2,4-D at 0.686 kg a.i. ha−1) and … Show more
