Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during 2010 to 2012 for three years at Agricultural Research Station, Karad Maharashtra to find out the suitable integrated weed management method in soybean. Post-emergence application of quizalofop-ethyl at 0.05 kg/ha + chlorimuron-ethyl at 0.009 kg/ha at 15 days after seeding (DAS) + hand weeding at 30 DAS, recorded lowest weed biomass (38.1 g/m2) with higher weed control efficiency (62%) and lower weed index (8.0). The some treatment also recorded the highest seed yield and net returns with lower weed index (8.0) in soybean.
