Abstract

At the Dry Land Horticulture Research-cum-Instructional Farm, Pt. SKS College of Agriculture and Research Station, Rajnandgoan (C.G.), a field experiment was carried out during the 2023 kharif season. Eight treatments and three replications were used in the Randomized Block Design experiment. At 20 and 40 DAS (T2), two hand weedings produced noticeably more sesame seeds. 750 g a.i. ha-1 of 50% EC metolachlor as PE fb Propaquizafop 10% EC @ 100 g a.i. ha-1 at 20 DAS as PoE (T8) to other herbicides, the latter proved most successful in suppressing various narrow-leaved and broad-leaved weeds, leading to increased growth, yield characteristics and yield of sesame (568.64) and B:C.
