“…Among the other herbicidal treatments, the lowest grain yields of mustard was recorded with isoproturon which in turn was observed to be statistically at par with quizalofop-ethyl and fluchloralin. This confirms the findings of Singh et al (1986) and Yadav et al (1983).…”

A field experiment was carried out during rabi seasons of 2009-10 and 2010-11 at the Research Farm of Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology at Chatha, Jammu to assess the physiological growth indices in chickpea+mustard intercropping system under different weed management practices. The significant superiority of replacement series treatment for leaf area index of mustard over additive series treatment was noticed. The sole crop of mustard was followed by replacement and additive series treatments in recording highest dry matter, crop growth rate and net assimilation rate values. Sole stand of mustard recorded numerically higher relative growth rate (RGR) followed by replacement and additive series treatments. Weed free treatment recorded numerically highest crop growth rate (CGR) and net assimilation rate (NAR) of mustard at all the stages of observation. As regards yield, sole stand recorded significantly higher values of grain and was followed by additive and replacement series which in turn were differed significantly from one another in chickpea+mustard intercropping system.

“…Similarly, Sana [55] recorded the lowest 100 seed weight from the untreated weedy plots of chickpea. These results are in agreement with those of Yadav, Singh and Mohammadi [25,56,57] who found that the increased duration of weed interference in chickpea is associated with reduced dry matter to seed production which results in yield reduction in particular, hundred seed weight plant -1 .…”

“…Prakash [49] found that long season crop-weed competition reduced the fieldpea yield by 44.6 to 55.6%. Similarly, several authors reported that weedy check plots gave the lowest yield in chickpea [25,57,68]. Blackshaw [10] stated that the weeds reduce more than 75% of yield in cowpea crop.…”

To assess the integrated effect of planting pattern and low dose herbicide mixtures on weeds and growth, yield attributes and yields of cowpea, and to determine the economic feasibility of different weed management practices in cowpea, a field experiment was conducted at Sirinka Agricultural Research Center experimental sites at Jari and Sirinka in Northern Ethiopia during the 2014 main cropping season. There were 16 treatments comprising the combinations of two planting patterns (60 cm × 10 cm, 45 cm × 15 cm) and eight weed management practices (s-metolachlor 2.0 kg ha -1 , s-metolachlor at 1.0 kg ha -1 +hand weeding and hoeing 35 weeks after crop emergence (WAE), pendimethalin at 1.0 kg ha -1 +hand weeding and hoeing 5 WAE, s-metolachlor at 1.0 kg ha -1 +pendimethalin at 1.0 kg ha -1 , s-metolachlor at 1.0 kg ha -1 +pendimethalin at 0.75 kg ha -1 , s-metolachlor at 0.75 kg ha -1 +pendimethalin at 1.0 kg ha -1 , hand weeding and hoeing 3 WAE and weedy check. The treatments were laid out in factorial combination in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The highest number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, and hundred seed weight were obtained from the combination of s-metolachlor at 1.0 kg ha -1 +hand weeding 5 WAE along with 60 cm × 10 cm at Sirinka. Higher (3092 kg ha -1 ) grain yield was recorded at Sirinka than at Jari (2714 kg ha -1 ). The highest (53460 ETB ha -1 ) gross benefit was obtained from s-metolachlor at 1.0 kg ha -1 +hand weeding and hoeing 5 WAE, followed by pendimethalin at 1.0 kg ha -1 +hand weeding and hoeing 5 WAE (46737 ETB ha -1 ). Therefore, managing the weeds with the application of 1.0 kg ha -1 of s-metolachlor+hand weeding and hoeing 5 WAE along with 60 cm × 10 cm proved to be the most feasible practice. Alternate herbicides for the control of X. strumarium infested fields in the study area needs to be explored.

“…Thus, by tbe time weeds are removed the crops have already suffered damage from weed com-petition. Studies on yield loss as a result of weeds in rainfed winter-sown chickpea and lentil crops in the Mediterranean environments have been limited (SAXENA and WASSIMI 1980, BASLER 1981, KUKULA et al 1983, KNOTT and HALILA 1986, although substantial work in this area has been done in the Indian subcontinent (AHLAWAT et al 1979, MALIK et al 1982, YADAV et al 1983, ALI and KuSHWAH 1985, SINGH et al 1986) and for lentil in North America (DREW 1982, HORNFORD and DREW 1985, CURRAN et al 1987. This research was, therefore, conducted to study the effect of duration of weed mterference on crop productivity and to determine the critical period for weed removal in chickpea and lentil grown in a rainfed cropping system common in the dry areas in the Mediterranean region.…”

Three field experiments were conducted on chickpea {Cicer arietinum L.) and four on lentil {Lens culinaris Med.) at different winter-sown rainfed locations in Jordan from 1988/89 to 1990/91 to study the effect of the duration of weed-free and weed-infested conditions on yields and yield components of the crops. Chickpea seed yields were reduced on average by 81 % and straw yields by 63 % when fields remained weed infested until harvest compared with weed-free conditions throughout the growing season. The corresponding lentil seed and straw yield decreases were 63 % and 55 %. As the duration of weed-free period increased and the duration of weed-infested period decreased, yields increased. However, the critical period of weed interference was between 35 and 49 days after emergence in chickpea and between 49 and 56 days after emergence in lentil, when these crops were at an advanced stage of vegetative growth. There were significant negative correlations between the weed dry weight and the seed or straw yields. The reduction in seed yields in both crops because of weed interference occurred mainly through the reduced number of pods/plant, which in turn was partly the result of reduced number of secondary branches. In chickpea, some reduction also occurred through reduced 100-seed weight.
