Abstract:

Pre-plant application of pendimethalin or fluchloralin or trifluralin 1.0 kg/ha was effective to control weeds in cumin. Seed yield of cumin was significantly higher with application of pendimethalin 1.0 kg/ha which was at par with application of fluchloralin or trifluralin 1.0 kg/ha and hand weeding twice (30 & 45 DAS). In cumin-pearl millet cropping system, trifluralin 1.00 kg/ha was effective for weed management in cumin without reducing yield of succeeding pearl millet. Whereas in cumin-transplanted pearl millet cropping system, pre-plant application of fluchloralin or trifluralin at 1.0 kg/ha was effective for weed management.
