Abstract:

A field experiment to study the efficacy of imidazolinone herbicides in greengram was conducted during Kharif seasons of 2012 and 2013. Ten weed control treatments viz. imazethapyr at 50 and 70 g, premix of imazethapyr + imazamox at 60 and 70 g/ha, both applied as post-emergence at 20 days after sowing; pendimethalin 1000 g and premix of pendimethalin + imazethapyr at 800, 900, 1000 g/ha, both applied as pre-emergence, along with two hand weedings and weedy check were evaluated. Imazethapyr alone and its premixes with pendimethalin and imazamox recorded effective control of mixed weed flora and produced significantly higher greengram seed yield than weedy check. Pendimethalin alone did not control Commelina benghalensis and recorded lower seed yield. All the herbicides were safe to crop.
