Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Imazethapyr 75 g/ha applied at 20 DAS significantly reduced density and dry weight of dicot and monocot weeds at 30 DAS in pigeonpea compared with the weedy check.
- Intervention effect In pigeonpea, paraquat 0.48 kg/ha integrated with pendimethalin applied at 42 DAS significantly reduced weed population and dry weight at 50 and 70 DAS, on par with hand weeding twice at 25 and 50 DAS.
- Intervention effect Hand weeding twice gave the higher weed control efficiency of 96.7% in pigeonpea.
- Intervention effect Pendimethalin + paraquat at 42 DAS gave a weed control efficiency of 78.3% in pigeonpea, second to hand weeding twice.
- Intervention effect Uncontrolled weeds caused a 79% loss in pigeonpea seed yield.
- Intervention effect Pendimethalin followed by paraquat at 42 DAS gave a higher pigeonpea seed yield of 1304 kg/ha, at par with hand weeding twice at 25 and 50 DAS (1245 kg/ha).
- Intervention effect Pendimethalin followed by paraquat gave a significantly higher benefit:cost ratio (3.28) than hand weeding twice in pigeonpea.
