An experiment was conducted during Kharif 1997 and 1998 at the Regional Acdculture Research Station, Bharari, Jhansi (Uttar Pradesh). The grain yield recorded wad significantly higher (17.1Sq/ha) in two hand weedings (20 & 40 DAS) with 63.07 per cent weed control efficiency. Incase of weedlc1de the pre-emergence application of alachore 4.0 litre per hectare and pre sowing applicatlon of fluchloralin 1.65 letre per hectare, showed 28.86 and 30.27% WCE, respectively. Amona weecllclde, application of flucbloralin exhibited higher grain yield than alachlor, but It was found significantly superior.
