This book clearly defines ways to maximize the allelopathic potential of important field crops for controlling weeds, either in the same crop or others. Compared to the use of herbicides, allelopathy is an attractive option to control weeds naturally under field conditions. The book highlights the allelopathic potential of several important cereals (wheat, maize, rice, barley, sorghum, rye) and two oilseed crops [sunflower and canola (as well as some other member of Brassicaceae family)]. Further, the book explains how the allelopathic potential of these crops can be manipulated under field conditions to suppress weeds. This is possible by growing allelopathic crop cultivars, using mulches from allelopathic crops, intercropping an allelopathic crop with a non-allelopathic crop, including allelopathic crops in crop rotation, or using allelopathic crops as cover crops. Equipped with several basic concepts of allelopathy, this book will be highly useful for the farming community as well as students and researchers.



Dr. Khawar Jabran is working as Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Sciences at Duzce University, Turkey. He is actively involved in researching, teaching and writing about agriculture. His research focuses on the increase of crop yields through improved crop management practices and the management of abiotic and biotic (particularly weeds) stresses. Major crops (rice, wheat, cotton, maize, canola, sorghum etc.), and environmentally-friendly methods of weed control are the primary concentration of his research work. Dr. Jabran has over a decade of research experience and more than 150 publications in peer-reviewed journals, books, and conference proceedings. Moreover, he is an editor and reviewer of highly-rated international journals.
