Pre and post - emergence herbicides with cultural practices on weed management in soybean - pigeonpea intercropping system under middle Gujarat conditions

Abstract

To study the “pre and post-emergence herbicides with cultural practices on weed management in soybean-pigeonpea intercropping system under middle Gujarat condition”, an experiment was conducted at Agriculture Research Station, Anand Agricultural University, Derol, Dist: panchmahal, Gujarat, India during kharif seasons of the years 2017-18 and 2018-19. Ten treatments for weed management were studied in randomized block design with four replications. Result of field experimentation, it seems quite logical that potential production, profit and economic weed management can be achieved in soybean - pigeonpea intercropping system by interculturing + hand weeding at 20 & 40 DAS or post-emergence application of imazamox 35% + imazethapyr 35% (Pre mix)70 g ha-1PoE fb interculturing + hand weeding at 30 DAS.
