Abstract:

The effect of polythene mulches raised bed planting, and naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) application was evaluated for weed control, yield, and economics of bell pepper.  The combination treatment of raised bed planting, plastic mulch and NAA recorded the lowest intensity of Oxalis latifolia (15%), Amaranthus spp. (4%), Echinochloa crus-galli (5 %), Setaria spp. (23%) and Commelina benghalensis (15%). The combination of raised bed planting, double-colored polythene mulch and NAA recorded the highest yield (38.9 t/ha). The combination of raised bed planting, black polythene mulch, and NAA had the lowest weed density (277 no/m2), less weed dry biomass (119 g/m2), and the highest weed control efficiency (66%).
