A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2021 - 22, at Department of Agronomy, School of Agriculture, LPU, Punjab. The experiment comprises of nine weed control treatments as T₁- PE Flumioxazin 50% @125 g a.i ha^-1, T₂- PE Metribuzine 70% @ 0.0175 Kg a.i ha^-1 + 1 hand weeding, T₃- PE Metribuzin @ 0.0175 a.i ha^-1 + PoE Clodinofop propargyl @ 60 g a.i ha^-1, T₄- PE Flumioxazin 50% SC @125 g a.i ha^-1 + hand weeding, T₅- PoE 2,4-D @0.5-0.84 kg a.i ha^-1, T₆- PoE Metasulfuron methyl 20% @4g a.i ha^-1, T₇- Closer spacing 15 cm R/R, T₈- weed free and T₉- weedy check. Experiment carried out as randomized block design with three replications. All the weed control treatments significantly increased the yield attributes, spike length, spike weight, number of spikes (m^-2), number of spikelets spike^-1, number of grains spike^-1, test weight (g), and grain weight spike^-1 and yields of wheat over weedy check. Highest spike length, spike weight, number of spikes (m^-2), number of spikelets spike^-1, number of grains spike^-1, test weight (g), and grain weight spike^-1 and grain, straw and biological yield of wheat in weed free treatment, followed by PE Metribuzin @ 0.0175 kg a.i ha^-1 + PoE Clodinofop propargyl @ 60 g ai ha^-1. Higher gross and net returns were obtained under in PE Metribuzin @ 0.0175 kg a.i ha^-1 + PoE Clodinofop propargyl @ 60 g a.i ha^-1 remained at par with PE Metribuzine 70% @ 0.0175 Kg a.i ha^-1 + 1 hand weeding.
