Homoeopathic approaches in complementing conventional weed management for field pea growth and yield under irrigated conditions
AUTHOR(S): Pierre Dubois
ABSTRACT:Field pea (Pisum sativum L.) is an important pulse crop cultivated under irrigated conditions, but weed infestation significantly hampers its growth and yield. Conventional weed management practices primarily rely on chemical herbicides, which often pose environmental and health risks. To mitigate these concerns, complementary approaches, such as homoeopathy, have gained attention for their potential to enhance crop growth and yield while promoting sustainability in agriculture. This research aims to evaluate the efficacy of homoeopathic preparations in combination with conventional weed management strategies for improving field pea growth and yield under irrigated conditions. Homoeopathic remedies, known for their holistic action and minimal environmental impact, were selected based on their purported effects on plant health and growth. Experimental plots were established under controlled conditions to compare the outcomes of conventional weed management alone and combined with selected homoeopathic treatments. The results indicate that the integration of homoeopathic approaches not only supported effective weed control but also promoted healthier plants with higher yield potential. This research underscores the potential of integrating homoeopathic treatments into conventional weed management practices as a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative in modern agriculture.
