Abstract:
Considering the needs to standardize the package of tillage and weed management over entisols of crop production this investigation was planned. To study effect of tillage and weed management practices on soybean (Glycine max L. (Merrill.) under entisols soil was conducted at field of research farm of AICRP on Weed Management, Department of Agronomy, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola (Maharashtra) during the kharif season of 2018-19. There were twenty treatment combinations. The other cultural practices were kept common, as recommended. Results shows that, rainfed soybean grown on entosolic soil with conventional tillage exhibited better growth and yield attributes and recorded significantly higher seed yield. In respect of weed management in soybean weed free treatment found significantly superior in controlling weeds in soybean crops. However, among the herbicidal treatments, the PE application of diclosulam 0.030 kg a.i./ha + POE application of propaquizafop + imazethapyr 0.125 kg a.i./ha at 20 DAS in soybean were noted better in controlling weeds in soybean. Improvement in soil physical properties viz., soil moisture content, porosity, mean weight diameter, rate of infiltration, hydraulic conductivity was observed with tillage practice of conventional tillage and weed free treatment. Significantly higher gross monetary returns and net monetary returns along with maximum benefit: cost ratio was obtained with conventional tillage followed by reduced tillage treatment.
