Abstract:
An experiment on “Effect of fertility levels and weed management practices on yield and economics of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) productivity under irrigated condition”. was conducted at Agronomy Research Farm, Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Ayodhya (U.P.) during Rabi season of 2019-20. The experiment was laid out in Factorial Randomized block design with three replications keeping four fertility levels viz., 100% RDF-IF (150kg/h), 125% RDF-IF (25% through FYM), 100% RDF + 25%RDN through FYM, 75%RDF-IF+25%RDN through FYM and four weed management practices Weedy Check, Weed free up to 60 days, Sulfosulfuron @ 30g/h + Carfentazole @ 20g/h, Clodinafop propagynol (60g) + metsulfuron (4g) = (64g/h). Results revealed that among fertility levels application of 125% RDF-IF (25% through FYM) and in weed management practices weed free followed by Clodinafop propagynol (60g) + metsulfuron (4g) = (64g/h) a.i ha^-1 proved as superior than other treatments with respect to higher crop growth and yield and yield attributes.
