Abstract:

A field experiment was conducted at “Effect of Weed Control Measures on Growth and Yield of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)” conducted during rabi 2023-24 at Agriculture farm, Suresh Gyan Vihar University, Jaipur on loamy sand soil. The experiment consisting ten treatments (Weedy check, Weed free, At 30 DAS and harvest, application of Pendimethalin + Imazethapyr @ 800 g ha-1 PPI significantly reduced the density and dry matter of weeds as compared to weedy check, Diclosulam @ 20 g ha-1 PE, Diclosulam @ 25 g ha-1 PE, Flumioxazin @ 75 g ha-1 PE, Flumioxazin @ 100 g ha-1 PE, Sodium Acefluorfen 16.5 + clodinafop 8% = @ 240 g ha-1 POE and Fomesalfen 11.1 + Fluzifop 11.1 = @ 220 g ha-1 POE and remained statistically at par with Pendimethalin @ 1.0 kg ha-1. Maximum number of pod plant-1, seed, straw and biological yield were recorded under weed free and Pendimethalin + Imazethapyr @ 800 g ha-1 PPI which was significantly higher than weedy check, diclosulam 20 g ha-1 and diclosulam 25 g ha-1 and Flumioxazin 75 g ha-1 and Flumioxazin 100 g ha-1 while at par with Pendimethalin @ 1.0 kg ha-1.
