Response of mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) to weed control practices in Rajasthan

Abstract

An investigation "Response of Mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) to Weed Control Practices in Rajasthan" was carried out during the kharif season of 2024 at the Research Farm, Suresh Gyan Vihar University, Jaipur, on loamy sand soil. The experiment finding recorded that application of pendimethalin 0.75 kg/ha PE fb Imazethapyr 40 g/ha 20 DAS significantly lowest the density and dry matter of weeds at 30 DAS and harvest. Whereas maximum weed control efficiency was recorded with pendimethalin 0.75 kg/ha PE fb Imazethapyr 40 g/ha 20 DAS. Pendimethalin 0.75 kg/ha PE fb Imazethapyr 40 g/ha 20 DAS was significantly enhanced the number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pods, seed, straw and biological yield of green gram as compared to weedy check, Propaquizafop + imazethapyr PoE @ 100 g a.i./ha, Clodinafop-propargyl + sodium-acifluorfen PoE @ 187.5 g a.i./ha, Imazethapyr 40 g/ha 20 DAS and remained statistically at par with weed free.
