BR-]]2). None of the herbicides was pbytotoxic lo the crop. All the weed control treatments significantly reduced the weed dry matter and increased fruit yield of brinjal ever weedy check during both the years. Maximum yield of brinjal was recorded in weed free treatment. Fluchloralin and oxadiazon each at 1.25 kg/ha and pendimethalin at 3.CO kg/ha yielded higher than two hand weediegs and remai. ned at par with weed free.
