چکیده

سابقه و هدف: استفاده مناسب از روش‌های مکانیکی کنترل علف‌های هرز با استفاده از کولتیواتورهای مناسب در زراعت پنبه، افزایش عملکرد، کاهش هزینه‌های کارگری و در نهایت افزایش درآمد را به دنبال دارد. در این تحقیق ساخت و ارزیابی ماشین کولتیواتور درون ردیفی (انجام توام کنترل علف‌های هرز بین و درون ردیف‌ها) در کاشت پنبه و مقایسه آن با روش مرسوم کنترل علف‌های هرز با کولتیواتور پنجه‌غازی و روش کنترل شیمیایی بررسی گردید.
مواد و روش‌ها: آزمایش در ایستگاه تحقیقات کشاورزی داراب استان فارس با هشت تیمار و سه تکرار در قالب طرح بلوک‌های کامل تصادفی انجام شد. تیمارهای آزمایش، استفاده از کولتیواتور درون ردیفی و علف‌کش تریفلورالین قبل از کاشت (T1)، کولتیواتور پنجه‌غازی + علف‌کش تریفلورالین قبل از کاشت (T2)، کولتیواتور درون ردیفی و علف‌کش تریفلورالین بعد از کاشت (T3)، کولتیواتور پنجه‌غازی + علف‌کش تریفلورالین بعد از کاشت (T4)، کولتیواتور درون ردیفی (T5)، علف‌کش انووک (T6)، کنترل تمام فصل علف‌های هرز (T7) و عدم کنترل علف‌های هرز (T8) بود. عملیات کاشت پنبه با بذر گلستان و به مقدار 20 کیلوگرم بر هکتار با ردیف‌کار پنوماتیک انجام شد. میزان مصرف علف‌کش تریفلورالین و انووک به ترتیب 5/2 لیتر بر هکتار و 15 گرم بر هکتار در نظر گرفته شد. پارامترهای کنترل علف‌های هرز، خاک‌دهی پای بوته، عملکرد و اجزاء عملکرد اندازه‌گیری و ارزیابی اقتصادی انجام شد.
یافته‌ها: حداکثر کنترل علف‌های هرز در استفاده از کولتیواتور درون ردیفی و علف‌کش تریفلورالین قبل از کاشت با 78/92 درصد به دست آمد. این تیمار تفاوت معنی‌داری را با کنترل تمام فصل علف‌های هرز پنبه به وسیله کارگر نداشت. استفاده از کولتیواتور پنجه‌غازی موجب افزایش خاک‌دهی پای بوته‌های پنبه به میزان 4/67 درصد گردید. نتایج همچنین نشان داد که استفاده از علف‌کش تریفلورالین قبل از کاشت، عملکرد وش بیشتری را نسبت به استفاده از این علف‌کش بعد از کاشت به همراه استفاده از کولتیواتور درون ردیفی دارد. تجزیه و تحلیل اقتصادی نیز نشان داد که بازده برنامه‌ای استفاده از کولتیواتور درون ردیفی در مقایسه با کولتیواتور پنجه-غازی در حدود 67 درصد است.
 نتیجه‌گیری: با توجه به نتایج به دست آمده در این آزمایش، کارآیی استفاده از کولتیواتور درون ردیفی نسبت به کولتیواتور پنجه‌غازی مشاهده گردید. نتایج این تحقیق نشان داد که کنترل مکانیکی و شیمیایی علف‌های هرز در پنبه، روشی موثر است. استفاده از کولتیواتور درون ردیفی، روشی جدید در کنترل علف‌های هرز مزارع پنبه نسبت به روش استفاده از کولتیواتور پنجه‌غازی (روش مرسوم) در هر دو زمینه فنی و اقتصادی است. کنترل علف‌های هرز درون ردیف با کولتیواتور درون ردیفی، مزیت کاهش کارگر و تردد تراکتور و ماشین‌های کشاورزی و نیز افزایش عملکرد پنبه را به دنبال داشته و برای مناطق پنبه خیز کشور با کاشت ردیفی قابل توصیه است.

چکیده [English]

Background and objectives: The use of mechanical methods for weed control with suitable cultivators increases yield, reduces labor costs, and ultimately enhances income in cotton fields. This research focuses on the construction and evaluation of an in-row cultivator machine (for controlling weeds both between and within rows) and compares it with the conventional method of weed control using a sweep cultivator and a chemical control method in cotton planting.
Materials and methods: The experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design (RCBD) with eight treatments and three replications at Darab Agricultural Research Station in Fars province. Test treatments were using in-row cultivator and trifluralin herbicide before planting (T1), sweep cultivator and trifluralin herbicide before planting (T2), in-row cultivator and trifluralin herbicide afte planting (T3), sweep cultivator and trifluralin herbicide after planting (T4), in-row cultivator (T5), envok herbicide (T6), full-season control of weeds (T7) and no weed control (T8). The cotton planting operation was done with Golestan seeds and in the amount of 20 kg/ha with a pneumatic planter. The consumption rate of trifluralin and envok herbicides was considered 2.5 lit/ha and 15 gr/ha, respectively. The parameters of weed control, soiling of plant, yield and yield components were measured and economical evaluation was done.
Results: Maximum weed control (92.78%) was achieved using the in-row cultivator and trifluralin herbicide before planting, which did not differ significantly from the full-season manual control treatment. The use of a sweep cultivator increased plant soiling by 67.4%. Results also indicated that applying trifluralin herbicide before planting resulted in higher cotton yields compared to applying it after planting in conjunction with the in-row cultivator. Economic analysis revealed that the gross margin of using the in-row cultivator was about 67% higher than that of the conventional sweep cultivator.
Conclusion: The results of this experiment demonstrate the efficiency of the in-row cultivator compared to the sweep cultivator. This research shows that both mechanical and chemical weed control methods are effective in cotton cultivation. The in-row cultivator, a new method for controlling weeds in cotton fields, proves superior to the conventional sweep cultivator both technically and economically. In-row weed control with the in-row cultivator reduces labor and the traffic of tractors and agricultural machines, increases cotton yield, and is recommended for cotton-growing areas with row planting.
