Year: 2001

Type: article

Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during the winter season of 1995-96 and 1966-97 to study the effect of weed-management practices on productivity and profitability of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. emend.Fiori & Paol.) grown under limited irrigation.The pooled data revealed that 2 hand-weedings resulted in maximum grain yield (28.6 qlha) and net returns (Rs 8,7961ha).Combined application of butachlor and 2, 4-D each at 1.0 kglha proved as effective as 2 hand-weeding (1 .lo) in respect of benefit : cost ratio.
