Description

Field studies were carried out for four years to test the bioefficacy of fluchloralin, trifluralin and pendimethalin against Poa annua, L., which is impracticable to control mechanically in berseem. All the weedicides proved effective against Poa annua L. at the doses of 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 kg/ha. However, application of fluchloralin at 0.6 kg/ha proved most effective and produced only 54 kg/ha dry matter of Poa annua L. as compared to 1010 kg/ha in unweeded control. Based on 4 years data fluchloralin@ 0.6 kg/ha gave 29.2 and 31.4 per cent higher green and dry matter yield of berseem over unweeded control respectively.
