Phaloris minor, Rumex denticulata, Chenopodium album, Melilotus spp. and Anagallis arvensis, Zero tillage was dominated by sedge, whereas reduced and conventional by broad-leaved weeds, specially Rumex denticulata which suppressed all other weeds at late stages of crop growth. Isoproturon atlkg ha−1 (30 DAS) fb 2, 4-D 0.5 kg ha−1 (40 DAS) was more effective to minimize weed density and their dry weight under all the tillage treatments than glyphosate at 0.5 l fb isoproturon at 1.0 kg ha−1, sulfosulfuron at 25 g ha−1 and isoproturon at 1.0 kg ha−1. The minimum weed control efficacy was observed in alone application of sulfosulfuron and isoproturon. On an average, isoproturon fb 2, 4-D increased the grain yield by 42.3, 38.0 and 39.1% over weedy check in zero, reduced and conventional tillage, respectively. Top |
