Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during rainy season of 2010 on sandy loam soil to study the influence of weeds on yield of rainy season pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br. emend. and Stuntz]. Hand weeding at 35 days after sowing was found most effective in reducing weed population, dry weight of weeds and maximum yield of pearl millet. Atrazine 0.50 kg/ha applied as pre-emergence was also equally effective. Increase in dose of atrazine treatment significantly reduced the yield of kharif pearl millet.
