Abstract:
At the Agriculture Research Station, an experiment was carried out in the field during the 2018 kharif season, Navsari Agricultural University, Mangrol to study critical period of crop-weed competition in pigeonpea under south Gujarat condition with 12 treatments. In the experimental site found the various types of monocot, dicot and sedges weeds. Treatment W4 (Weed free up to 60 DAS) recorded the noticeably highest grain and stalk yield. Lowest grain as well as stalk yield was recorded with W12 (Weedy up to harvest). All weedy treatments found more weed infestation so that they supress the growth of crop. So that ultimately reduce yields of crop.
