Description
Sreekanth and co-authors ran this field study in twenty twenty-five on greengram, a small bean crop. Weeds and drought often hit the crop at the same time. Over two years the team grew greengram with two common weeds, under both ample water and drought. They tracked plant water, leaf health, stress chemicals, and final yield.
One weed, barnyard grass, hurt the crop far more than the other weed. The harm grew worse under drought. Plants lost water, their membranes weakened, and stress chemicals rose sharply. The authors say weed control and water planning must be handled together, not as separate jobs. Their findings aim to help farmers protect yields as dry spells grow more common.
