Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agronomy
  • Agriculture
  • Ecology

Bhagirath S. Chauhan mostly deals with Agronomy, Weed, Weed control, Seedling and Germination. His Weed research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Crop residue, Tillage and Seeding. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Agroforestry, Seed predation and Crop.

His research in Crop intersects with topics in Dry matter, Seedbed, Sowing, Allelopathy and Competition. His work deals with themes such as Lolium rigidum and Soil surface, which intersect with Seedling. His research integrates issues of Salinity and Poaceae in his study of Germination.

His most cited work include:

  • Allelopathy for weed control in agricultural systems (214 citations)
  • Productivity and sustainability of the rice-wheat cropping system in the indo-gangetic plains of the Indian subcontinent: Problems, opportunities, and strategies (206 citations)
  • Ecology and management of weeds under conservation agriculture: A review (188 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Bhagirath S. Chauhan mainly investigates Agronomy, Weed, Weed control, Crop and Sowing. His study in Weed is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Agriculture, Germination, Horticulture, Competition and Glyphosate. In Germination, he works on issues like Seedling, which are connected to Soil surface and Poaceae.

His studies deal with areas such as Cropping, Agroforestry, Cultivar and Biomass as well as Weed control. His studies in Crop integrate themes in fields like Transplanting and Irrigation. His Sowing research includes elements of Oryza sativa, Shoot and Dry matter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (74.00%)
  • Weed (65.25%)
  • Weed control (51.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Weed (65.25%)
  • Agronomy (74.00%)
  • Weed control (51.75%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Bhagirath S. Chauhan spends much of his time researching Weed, Agronomy, Weed control, Glyphosate and Germination. His Weed research includes themes of Crop, Agriculture, Horticulture, Seedling and Tillage. His research combines Competition and Agronomy.

His Weed control study also includes

  • Agroforestry that intertwine with fields like Climate change,
  • Sorghum and related Crop residue. Bhagirath S. Chauhan usually deals with Glyphosate and limits it to topics linked to Resistance and Seed dormancy and Range. His work in Germination covers topics such as Salinity which are related to areas like Soil pH.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Grand Challenges in Weed Management (13 citations)
  • Effect of elevated carbon dioxide concentration on growth, productivity and glyphosate response of parthenium weed (Parthenium hysterophorus L.). (11 citations)
  • Alternative Options to Glyphosate for Control of Large Echinochloa colona and Chloris virgata Plants in Cropping Fallows. (9 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Agriculture
  • Agronomy
  • Ecology

Bhagirath S. Chauhan focuses on Weed, Weed control, Agronomy, Glyphosate and Crop. His Weed research integrates issues from Inflorescence, Germination, Horticulture and Crop rotation. The concepts of his Germination study are interwoven with issues in Salinity, Crop residue, Lactuca serriola and Seedling.

The various areas that Bhagirath S. Chauhan examines in his Weed control study include Biomass, Agroforestry, Parthenium hysterophorus and Conservation agriculture. In his research on the topic of Agroforestry, Weedy rice is strongly related with Agriculture. Bhagirath S. Chauhan combines subjects such as Seed dormancy, Allelopathy, Sonchus oleraceus, Chenopodium and Competition with his study of Crop.
