- Abstract
A field experiment was conducted at Annamalai University experimental farm, Annamalainagar to find out the Effect of Integrated weed management practices on weed control in sunflower. The experiment was laid out in Randomized block design (RBD)with twelve treatments and replicated thrice viz., unweeded control (T1), Hand weeding twice at 15 and 30 DAS (T2), Pre-emergence application of pendimethalin 0.68 kg ai ha-1 (T3), Pre - emergence application of pendimethalin 1 kg ai ha-1 (T4), Pre-emergence application of pendimethalin 0.68 kg ai ha-1 + one hand weeding (30 DAS) (T5), Pre-emergence application of pendimethalin 1 kg ai ha-1 + one hand weeding (30 DAS) (T6), Pre - emergence application of pendimethalin 0.68kg ai ha-1 + Intercropping with blackgram (T7), Pre - emergence application of pendimethalin 1kg ai ha-1 + Intercropping with blackgram (T8), Pre-emergence application of pendimethalin 0.68kg ai ha-1 + Mulching with sugarcane trash at 21 DAS (T9), Pre-emergence application of pendimethalin 1kg ai ha-1 + Mulching with sugarcane trash at 21 DAS (T10), Intercropping alone (T11), Mulching alone (T12). Results of the experiment revealed that Pre-emergence application of pendimethalin 1kg ai ha-1 + Intercropping with blackgram was efficient and economically feasible alternative package to manage the weeds.
