A field experiment was carried out on the silty clay soil at Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapith, Rahuri (Maharastra) during Kharif 2013-2014. One hoeing at 15 DAS and two hand weeding at 25 and 45 DAS best treatment in respect of growth attributing character and yield attributing characters. The weed dry matter and intensity was also lowest in one hoeing at 15 DAS and two hand weeding at 25 and 45 DAS, which was followed by pre-emergence application of  metribuzin at 2 DAS at 525 g/ha + 1 HW at 30 DAS, PE application of treatment pendimethalin at 20 DAS cs at 677.25 g/ha + 1 HW at 30 DAS, metribuzin at 525 g/ha  fb imazethapyr + propaquizafop-ethyl as post-aplication at 20 DAS at 80 + 60 g/ha. Metribuzin at 525 g/ha + 1 HW at 30 DAS was economic viable due to high B: C ratio and net return.
