Abstract

Field studies were conducted in Karnataka, India, during the 2012-13 kharif season, to investigate the efficacy of propaquizafop for controlling grassy weeds in pigeon pea. The treatments comprised propaquizafop 10 EC at 0.05, 0.062, 0.1 and 0.125 kg/ha, fenoxaprop-p-ethyl 9.3 EC at 0.1 kg/ha, hand weeding twice (20 and 40 DAS) and weedy control. Data were recorded on yield, yield components and weed control efficiency and weed index at 15, 30 and 45 days after spraying. Results showed that the post-emergence application of propaquizafop 10% EC at 0.062 kg/ha controlled monocot weeds efficiently and produced significantly higher grain yield
