Application of Herbicide to Manage Weed Flora in Blackgram | Chapter 2 | Emerging Issues in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 9

 Blackgram, accurately known as Vigna mungo, holds a meaningful place in Indian agriculture and cuisine. India is individual of the world's chief producers of blackgram, risking a vital duty in fulfilling both household consumption and ship demands. The yield of blackgram, a significant rhythm crop in India, is influenced by a multitude of pertain factors that together shape its result outcomes. Weed disease poses a significant challenge to the yield of blackgram, an important leguminous crop. Weeds not only preclude the crop's access to lively resources but too create friendly conditions for pests and afflictions, further compromising yield potential. Effective grass management practices are critical to mitigate these negative effects. Present phase describes the administration of weeds using herbicides. The study decided that the Echinochloacolona (29.39%) and Dinebraretroflexa (24.30%) were predominant weeds in blackgram. Further, the post rise application of propaquizafop+imazethapyr mixture from 53+80 was establish the suitable for persuasive control of composite weed vegetation associated with blackgram in central India.

Weed Management in Conservation Agriculture | Chapter 12 | Emerging Issues in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 6

 Given the current shortage of natural resources and the changeable nature of the climate, preservation agriculture (CA) is a efficient alternative. As a result, it is increasingly being used in rainfed extents to conserve soil and water. Herbicide use or manual destroy is both effective habits to manage the grass problem in CA. In conservation farming, weed control is considerably influenced by farming, crop establishment methods, apparatus, agronomic practices, etc. Conservation cultivation places a strong priority on capital preservation and prohibits the use of chemical compound. Under conservation agriculture, weeds maybe reduced by utilizing crop rotation, compatible type collection with optimum seed rates, farming with sufficient soil destroying, cover crops, and appropriate water management. In CA, the use of herbicides has raised because of high labor costs and proper unavailability. The sustainability of preservation agriculture can be revised by implementing joined weed management, as a sole herbicide cannot efficiently control a wide variety of weeds.
