Abstract:
A field experiment was carried out at experimental farm of Agronomy section, College of Agriculture, Latur during Kharif 2017. As the title indicates, the current work aims to study the effect of integrated weed management on growth attributes of soybean (Glycine max. (L.) Merrill). The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design with eight treatments and replicated thrice.
The work revealed that, the treatment (T8) recorded maximum values in case of important growth attributes viz., plant height (46.71 cm) at harvest, mean number of branches plant-1 (7.00 cm) at harvest, mean number of nodules plant-1 at 60 DAS (56.33),which was found at par with treatment (T4) Pendimethalin 30% EC @ 1kg a.i./ha (PE) + Imazethapyr 10% SL @ 100g a.i./ha (PoE), (T1) Pendimethalin 30% EC @ 1 kg a. i./ha (P. E.) + Hoeing at 25-30 DAS and (T3) Imazethapyr 10 % SL @ 100 g a.i./ha (PoE). The treatment (T8) recorded maximum values in case of leaf area plant-1 at 60 DAS (9.65 dm2), dry matter accumulation plant-1 (17.57 g) at harvest, mean number of pods plant-1(42.30) at harvest which was followed by treatment (T4) Pendimethalin 30% EC @ 1kg a.i./ha (PE) + Imazethapyr 10% SL @ 100g a.i./ha (PoE).Lowest values of above mentioned parameters were recorded with treatment (T7) i.e. Weedy check as compared to all other treatments.
Study revealed the superiority of treatment weed free (T8) for all of important growth attributes and suggesting the positive benefits of weed management on growth which indirectly influences the yield of soybean.
