Effect of Different Fertility Levels and Weed Management Practices on Yield Attributes, Yield and Economics of Wheat
Abstract
An Experiment was conducted during rabi season 2013-14 and 2014-15 at the Special Agriculture Research Station, Bhind (M.P.) entitled “management of weed flora, in wheat under various fertility levels in different combination of herbicides”. On the basis of two years pooled data, results reveled that weed free condition gave highest grain yield (42.19 q./ha) due to more yield attributes viz, plant height, no. of tillers/plant, ear length, no of grain /ear, and grain yield/plant, but was statistically similar to application of pinoxadent + 2,4-D, pinoxaden + metsulfuson methyl and pinoxaden + catfentrazon ethyl. As regards ferlility level 25 % higher RDF recorded gave significantly more grain yield. (42.16 q/ha.), yield attributes, net income ( 46950/ha) and B:C ratio (3.60) as comparied with RDF.
