Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during two consecutive summer season of 2018 and 2019 in loamy sand soil at B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand to study the effect of integrated weed management in summer groundnut. Results indicated that pre-emergence application of oxyfluorfen 180 g/ha PE fb interculturing (IC) + hand weeding (HW) at 40 DAS found to be effective for controlling weeds, and higher pod yield (3.99 t/ha) of groundnut, followed by oxyfluorfen 180 g/ha PE fb imazethapyr 100 g/ha PoE, IC fb HW at 20 and 40 DAS, oxyfluorfen 180 g/ha PE fb imazethapyr + imazamox 70 g/ha PoE (pre-mix) and fluazifop-p-butyl + fomesafen 250 g/ha ePoE (pre-mix) fb IC + HW at 40 DAS.
