Abstract
In the year 2015-16, a field experimental trial was conducted during the rabi season to assess the impact of various broad spectrum herbicide treatments on weed density and yield in wheat crops. The experiment followed a randomized block design with four replications, and a total of eight treatments were tested. The wheat cultivar DBW-17 was used as the test crop. Results showed that weed density and dry matter accumulation of weeds increased up to 90 days of crop growth, but decreased at 120 days in the weedy check treatment. In contrast, no weeds were recorded in the weed-free plot throughout the crop period. In terms of the wheat crop, the weed-free plot had the highest total dry matter accumulation at all stages (30 DAS-32.62, 60 DAS-278.26, 90 DAS-934.49 and 120 DAS-1276.28 g/m2), number of spikes (303.00/m2), number of grains/spike (51.00), test weight (40.40 g), length of spike (11.12 cm) and grain yield (5.422 t/ha). On the other hand, the weedy check treatment had the lowest total dry matter accumulation at all stages (30 DAS-28.78, 60 DAS-207.24, 90 DAS-679.82 and 120 DAS-932.76 g/m2), number of spikes (208.00/m2), number of grains/spike (42.00), test weight (36.41 g), length of spike (10.31 cm) and grain yield (2.641 t/ha).
