“…Sharma et al [39] noticed that weed free treatment resulted in the highest yield attributes like number of siliquae plant -1 , number of seeds siliquae -1 and number of secondary branches plant -1 significantly which was followed by pendimethalin 38.7 CS @ 0.75 kg ha-1 + HW 30 DAS and pendimethalin 30 EC @ 0.75 kg ha -1 + HW 30 DAS respectively. Raj et al [70] revealed that two hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAS gave higher plant height, dry matter accumulation in g/plant, leaf area index and number of primary and secondary branches/plant. It was at par with pendimethalin (PE) 1.0 kg/ha + straw mulch 5 t/ha.…”

“…Maximum seed and stover yield and harvest index of mustard were noticed under two hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAS followed by pendimethalin (PE) 1 kg ha -1 + hand weeding at 30 DAS [38]. Raj et al [70] reported that, maximum seed, stover yield and harvest index were observed with application of pendimethalin (PE) 1 kg ha -1 + straw mulch 5t ha -1 followed by two hand weedings at 20 and 40 DAS in mustard. Sharma et al [39] observed that among the treatments, pre-emergence application of pendimethalin 38.7 CS @ 0.75 kg ha-1 + HW 30 DAS recorded higher seed yield, straw yield and biological yield (1220, 5549 and 6769 kg ha -1 ) next to weed free treatment (1297, 5888 and 7185 kg ha -1 ).…”

Mustard (Brassica juncea L.), a species of the cruciferous family, is the world's third most significant oilseed crop, following soybean and palm. Mustard seeds range in oil content from 37 to 49%. India is the fourth-largest producer of mustard and rapeseed in the world. The most significant issue causing mustard's low yield is weed control. Crop yields are significantly reduced by weeds; in the case of mustard, this can mean a complete failure rate of 15–30%. Crop plants compete with weeds for nutrients, sunlight, space, and water. In addition to lowering crop quality, weeds pose a number of nutritional and environmental hazards. In mustard crops, weed competition is particularly important in the early stages since the crop grows slowly in the first 4–8 weeks after sowing. On the other hand, 15–40 days are the critical window for crop–weed competition. Weed control must be carried out appropriately and on time in order to maximize mustard growth and production. During the early stages of crop growth, 25–30 days after sowing, the traditional practice of hand weeding once is insufficient because weeds always reappear after manual weeding, irrigation, or winter rainfall. More importantly, though, is that these weeds drain a large amount of the soil's moisture and nutrients. Though hand weeding mustard is simple, the expense of doing so is significant due to the scarcity of labor at the appropriate time and the uncontrolled growth of various intra row weeds. Weeds may become tolerant of herbicides despite their regular and high dosage application. Therefore, combined approaches could be the best option to control the complex weed flora in mustard.

A field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2021 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P). The soil of experimental plot was sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction (pH 7.1). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with nine treatments each replicated thrice on the basis of one year experimentation. It was consisting of combination of three level of bio-fertilizer VAM, Azotobacter, Azosprillium 10ml/kg seed each and used organic manure FYM 5.0t/h, Vermicompost and Neem cake 1.0t/h each. The results showed that application of Vermicompost 1.0 t/ha + Azospirillum 10ml/kg seed was recorded significantly higher siliquae/plant (159.32), seeds/siliquae (40.57), days to maturity (88.95), test weight (3.14 g), seed yield (1.71 t/ha) and oil content (42.38 %), gross returns (Rs.102800.00/ha), net return (Rs.72240.00/ha) and benefit cost ratio (2.36) as compared to other treatments.
