Abstract
An experiment was conducted during 2001 in Pantnagar, Uttaranchal, India, to study the effect of sowing date (5 and 20 July), row spacing (30 and 60 cm) and weed control (1.0 kg metribuzin, 2.5 kg alachlor and 1.5 kg pendimethalin/ha) practices on weed growth and productivity of soyabean. Weed control efficiency (WCE) was higher in 5 July compared to 20 July sowing. Higher WCE was recorded in narrow row spacing (30 cm) compared to wider row spacing (60 cm). Metribuzin recorded the lowest weed density and weed dry matter followed by pendimethalin and alachlor. In general, the highest grain yield was recorded with 5 July sowing, narrow row spacing (30 cm) and metribuzin treatment
