The experiment comprising 10 weed management treatments viz., T1 (Oxyfluorfen 180 g ha-1 pre-emergence + 1 HW & IC at 30 DAS), T2 (Oxadiargyl 90 g ha-1 pre-emergence + Oxadiargyl 90 g ha-1 post- emergence at 45 DAS), T3 (Oxadiargyl 90 g ha-1 pre-emergence + Quizalofop- ethyl 40 g ha-1 post-emergence at 45 DAS), T4 (Oxadiargyl 90 g ha-1 pre-emergence + Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl 75 g ha-1 post- emergence at 45 DAS), T5 (Oxyfluorfen 120 g ha-1 pre-emergence + Oxadiargyl 90 g ha-1 post-emergence at 45 DAS), T6 (Oxyfluorfen 120 g ha-1 pre-emergence + Quizalofop- ethyl 40 g ha-1 post- emergence at 45 DAS), T7 (Oxyfluorfen 120 g ha-1 pre-emergence + Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl 75 g ha1 post-emergence at 45 DAS), T8 (2 HW & IC at 30 and 45 DAS), T9 (weed free) and treatment T10 (unweeded check). These treatments were replicated thrice in randomized block design.
