Abstract

A field experiment was carried out during rabi season of 2015-2016 at AICRP-weed management farm, AAU, Anand to study the effect of mulch and herbicide on yield and economics of garlic (Allium sativum L.). Results of an experiment indicated that pre emergence application of pendimethalin 1000 g ha-1 and manual weeding carried out at 20 and 40 DAP along with spreading of paddy straw mulch 5 t ha-1 effectively reduced the density and dry weight of monocot, dicot and total weeds which reflected in increased in bulb yield, net returns as well as B:C in garlic.
