Year: 2022

Type: article

Abstract: The study was conducted at Instructional cum Research Farm, S.G. College of Agriculture and Research Station, Jagdalpur, Dist-Bastar (C.G.) during summer season 2021. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RBD) with three replication and consists of eight treatments. The soil of experimental field was Inceptisols, with acidic in reaction (pH-7.1), organic carbon was medium, available N was low and available P and K was medium. Result revealed that two hand weeding highest significantly in plant height, grain yield, gross return, net return and B:C ratio to other herbicide treatments. A non significant difference between plat emergences, haulm yield and harvest index were observed. Form the study it can be concluded that farmers can go for post emergence application of Sodium acifluorfen 16.5% + clodinafop propargy 8% (165+80 g ha-1) for better weed management and higher seed yield.
