Summary, etc. | Banana is one of the main export products in the Philippines. The growing demand for banana products generates a need for plantation expansion even in<br/>erosion-prone areas like slopes. Effective farming practices in slopes are therefore needed to conserve the soil and establish a sustainable production. One of<br/>these systems is weed management, which is a critical component of farming practice in sloping lands. A 3-year study was conducted to compare manual<br/>and chemical (paraquat and glyphosate) weed management on the abundance and diversity of grasses in a banana plantation. Counts, biomasses, seed bank,<br/>and diversity indices of grasses were compared in identical experiments in 15% and 25% slopes. From the seed banks, 7 grass species were observed: Cyperus<br/>brevifolius, Cynodon dactylon, Eleusine indica, Imperata cylindrica, Paspalum conjugatum, Digitaria ciliaris, and Digitaria longiflora. Generally, there was a<br/>decreasing trend in the seed bank counts in both manual and chemical plots of 15% and 25% slope. However, the differences between treatments were<br/>not significant. Chemical treatments reduced the general counts and biomass of monocot weeds, but this effect was generally not significant. Chemical<br/>treatments significantly reduced the counts of P. conjugatum in 15% slope and the biomass of E. indica in 25% slope in the field. C. dactylon was found to<br/>be the dominant species in the field because of its early establishment in the slopes, its spreading growth and its allelopathic properties, which suppressed<br/>other species. There was a significant increase in diversity in both treatments on two slopes, but chemical plots had a significantly higher diversity compared to<br/>the manual plots. Chemical weeding was also less expensive and less laborious than manual weeding.<br/> |
