Sensulfuron-methyl at 30 to 60 g ha−1 applied alone or as tank mixture with butachlor at 1.0 kg ha−1 reduced the density of all the sedges as well as Caesulia axillaris and Commelina benghalensis. At higher doses of bensulfuion methyl (50 and 60 g ha−1), there was almost complete control of sedges and non-grassy weeds. The differences in grain yields due to various doses of bensulfuron-methyl were non-significant and yields were at par with weedfree treatment. Bensulfuron-methyl was compatible with butachlor with report to control of various weeds.
