Abstract

Sorghum is grown on comparatively heavier soils on which control of weeds is one of the most difficult tasks as these soils and climatic conditions give rise to a host of weed problem. Past experiments at Udaipur showed that application of 2, 4-D) sodium salt best controls weeds when applied at the rate of 1.0 to 1.5 kglha (Singh and Faroda, 1964). Yet, some weeds like Trianthema portulacustrum and Physalls minima remained unhurt and hand weeding was the best to control many of the weeds including Trianthema portubcustrum (Singh and Porwal, 1967). Use of simazine which has given remarkable control of weeds in maize and also other herbicides as EPTC and PEBC which hold great promise an worth trying.
