Ml. Sharma et Ys. Chauhan, CULTURAL AND CHEMICAL WEED-CONTROL IN INDIAN MUSTARD (BRASSICA-JUNCEA), Indian Journal of Agronomy, 40(2), 1995, pp. 235-238
A field experiment was carried put during 1990 and 1991 to study cultu
ral and chemical weed control in Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.)
Czernj. & Cosson] at Gwalior. All the herbicides and cultural treatmen
ts significantly reduced dry-matter production by weeds over the contr
ol. The highest seed yield was obtained in weed-free treatment, follow
ed by 2 hand-weedings (at 30 and 45 days after sowing) and in plots tr
eated with fluchloralin @ 0.75 kg ai/ha at pre-planting.
