Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect All herbicide treatments significantly reduced weed density and weed dry weight compared with the weedy check.
- Intervention effect Tank-mixed herbicide applications suppressed weed number and dry weight better than single applications.
- Observation Highest grain yield, 51.6 and 51.75 q/ha, was recorded in the weed-free plot, at par with clodinofop + metsulfuron (60+2.5 g ai/ha).
- Intervention effect Uncontrolled weed growth reduced crop yield by 45.9 and 44.4 percent compared with the weed-free treatment.
- Intervention effect Tank mixtures of clodinofop with metsulfuron, sulfosulfuron with metsulfuron, carfentrazone ethyl or 2,4-D increased yield by 14.72 per cent over their single application, averaged over two years.
- Intervention effect Clodinofop + metsulfuron, at par with sulfosulfuron + metsulfuron and sulfosulfuron + 2,4-D, was most effective in enhancing yield attributes and grain yield among the herbicides.
- Observation Clodinofop with metsulfuron gave the highest economic return, Rs. 32285 and 35025/ha in the two seasons.
- Observation Clodinofop with metsulfuron gave the highest benefit:cost ratio, 2.89 and 2.96 in the two seasons.
- Intervention effect Metribuzin gave better weed control efficiency.
