Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2006-07 at Research Farm of the Department of Agronomy, Collage of Agriculture, Gwalior (M.P.), India to evaluate the Bio-Efficacy and Phytotoxicity of Metsulfuron-Methyl 20% (WG) against broad leaf weeds in Wheat (Triticum aestivum). Major dominant weeds infesting the wheat crop were Chenopodium album, Anagallis arvensis, Phalaris minor and Melilotus alba. Application of metsulfuron methyl at the rate of 8g + 0.2% surfactant/ ha was found most effective to control the weeds and for reducing their dry weight and also higher grain yield, which was closely followed by the application of metsulfuron-methyl 4g + 25g Sulfosulfuron/ha. Both the treatments also recorded higher and almost identical net income per rupee investment (Rs. 3.32 and 3.25).
