Abstract:

A field experiment was carried out at Ludhiana, Punjab during 2009 and 2010 to study the effect of different weed control treatments on growth and yield of rapeseed. Eight herbicide treatments, viz. trifluralin at 0.48 kg and 0.60 kg/ha (pre-plant and pre-emergence), pendimethalin at 0.56 kg and 0.75 kg/ha (pre-emergence), pendimethalin at 0.75 kg/ha (pre-plant) and oxyfluorfen at 0.25 kg/ha (pre-emergence), two hand weeding (25 and 45 days after sowing) and unweeded control were kept. Two hand weedings, pre-plant application of trifluralin at 0.60 kg/ha, and pre-plant and pre-emergence application of pendimethalin at 0.70 kg/ha significantly decreased dry weight of associated weeds as compared to unweeded control. Weed control efficiency recorded similar trend as of dry matter of weeds.  Accordingly, the increased with application of these weed control treatments.
