e0“application of pendimethalin @ 0.75 kg a. i./ha as pre-emergence spray or use of pendimethalin @ 0.75 kg a. i./ha as pre-emergence+one hoeing at 20-25 DAS gave broad spectrum of weed control and resulted in higher cowpea seed yield and B : C ratio similar to weed free up to 40 DAS and two hoeings @ 20-25 and 30-40 DAS.”
