Initial Blackgrass Data
• Blackgrass density was measured in a 14 m x 14 m grid in a winter barley at Silsoe Research Institute
• The model unit was 1 m by 1 m cells
• Treatment unit was 4 m by 4 m cells
Spatial weed management of Blackgrass
• The threshold algorithm• PC-Plant Protection• DAPS (Decision Algorithm for Patch
Spraying)
The Threshold Algorithm
If Blackgrass density was higher than 1 plant m-2
A normal dose of 3.5 l ha-1 IPU was applied
PC-Plant Protection
A normal dose of 2.1l ha-1 IPU was applied

Model Assumptions
• The size of the treatment area affects the differences between the algorithm
• No spatially or temporally depended effect of soil conditions or cultivation factors on seed emergence, crop weed competition or seed production
