Abstract
A study was undertaken at AICRP (VC), MPKV., Rahuri during Kharif season of 2011 using different herbicides and their time of application. It was found that the maximum weed control efficiency (87%) was recorded in oxyfluorfen (425 ml/ha) application before planting and second application at 15 days after transplanting. For controlling weed flora in Kharif onion, the oxyflourfen (625 ml/ha) at 15 days after transplanting and one hand weeding at 45 days after transplanting was found effective followed by oxyflourfen (425 ml/ha) application before planting and second application at 15 days after transplanting.
