ABSTRACT
The field experiment with legume-cereal mixtures was carried out in the years 2011-2013, at the Advisory Agricultural Center in Szepietowo (Podlaskie voivodeship). The aim of the study was to assess the degree of weed infestation of mixtures of oats with pea grown in organic farm. The first factor was the cultivar of pea (semi-leafless Milva cultivar and with bipinnate leaves Klif cultivar), while the second factor was the percentage of pea in the weight of sown seeds (40, 60 and 80%). Qualitative and quantitative analyses of weed infestation of the mixtures were carried out with the use of the square-frame method from the surface of 0,5 m2. The studies have shown that the mixtures with 40% share of legumes had the smallest weed infestation measured by the dry matter of weeds. The mixtures with semi-leafless pea cultivar Milva were somewhat more competitive against the matter of weeds, but such dependency was not recorded in relation to the numbers and composition of the segetal flora. Species diversity of weeds was similar in all mixtures. The most common species, regardless of the percentage of the components and the cultivar of peas were: Stellaria media, Chenopodium album, Galinsoga parviflora and Erigeron canadensis.
