Clodinofop, Fenoxaprop, Late sown wheat, Weeds
A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2010-11 at Faizabad to assess the bio-efficacy of fenoxaprop and formulation of fenoxaprop available as Wipsuper in the market at various doses and clodinofop on weeds and productivity of late sown wheat. Fenoxaprop at higher doses effectively suppressed weeds and produced significantly lowest weed dry weight but it did not able to enhance nitrogen removal by crop as at lower doses. Post-emergence application of Whipsuper (fenoxaprop) 120 g, fenoxaprop 100 and 120 g and clodinofop 60 g/ha in late sown wheat eliminates crop weed competition at tillering and grant growth period which ultimately provides congenial conditions to crop for better harnessing of available crop growth resources and produced profitable grain yields.
