Integrated weed management in cumin

Integrated Weed Management in Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.)

“…The removal of weeds at regular interval through hand weeding accounted for less count of total density of weeds. These findings are in concurrence with those of Sagarka et al, (2005) and Patil et al, (2020) in coriander, Birla et al, (2016) in cumin and Patel et al, (2019) in ajwain.…”

“…However these values were minimum under control condition. These findings are also in conformity with those reported by Patil et al, (2020) in coriander, , Meena and Mehta (2010), Yadav et al, (2012) and Birla et al, (2016) in cumin, in fennel, Meena et al, (2015) and Patel et al, (2019) in ajwain.…”

“…), which ultimately favoured better environment for growth and development of the plant which might be increased yield attributes. Analoguous findings have been reported by Patil et al, (2020) in coriander, Mehriya et al, (2008), Yadav et al, (2012) and Birla et al, (2016) in cumin, Meena et al, (2013) in dill seed, in fennel, Meena et al, (2015) and Patel et al, (2019) in ajwain.…”

“…This condition ultimately resulted in better utilization of nutrients and moisture available in the soil by the crop and might have produced bold seeds. Mehriya et al, (2008), ), Yadav et al, (2012 and Birla et al, (2016) in cumin, Meena et al, (2015) and Patel et al, (2019) in ajwain.…”

Evaluation of some Control Methods of Weeds and Fungal Soil-Borne Diseases on Cumin and its Productivity

“…Cumin is most vulnerable to weed competition at all stages of its growth due to its slow growth cycle and short stature. Chemical pesticides are the most effective means for controlling weeds and fungal diseases in cumin plants (Bhatnagar et al, 2013 andBirla et al, 2016). However, the excessive use of these chemicals has caused pollution to the environment and hazard effect on human health.…”
