Type: article
Abstract: An experiment was conducted at AICRP on Weed Management Farm, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand, Gujarat during two consecutive Kharif season of the year 2017-18 and 2018-19 on loamy sand soil. Results indicated that maximum seed yield (2.73 t/ha) and gross realization of Rs. 90145/ha was achieved under IC fb HW at 20 and 40 DAS while net realization of Rs. 51212/ha and BC ratio of 2.51 was recorded under application of propaquizafop + imazethapyr 125 g/ha PoE (PM) closely followed by imazethapyr 100 g/ha PoE fb IC +HW at 30 DAS and fluazifop-p-butyl + fomesafen 250 g/ha PoE (PM). The plant stand, plant height and dry matter production of wheat, chickpea and mustard were not affected by the application of different herbicides in preceding soybean.
