Abstract
Application of isoproturon was most effective for the control of all weeds, which resulted 99.32% weed control efficiency and 49.0% higher mean seed yield over unweeded control. The higher water use efficiency (WUE) (3.61 kg/ha mm) was observed under 0.4 IW:CPE ratio and higher net return (Rs/ha 28904) were obtained under the treatment combination (0.4 IW:CPE ratio and application of isoproturon 0.5 kg/ha as pre-emergence). The interaction effect of irrigation schedule and herbicidal weed control practices was found non-significant in some cases
