The conventional use of the same post-emergence herbicides repeatedly may result in poor management of the early weed flush in wheat under zero-tilled (ZT) condition. This may hasten development of herbicide resistant weeds as well. In this study, a possible weed management has been envisaged in ZT and conventional till (CT) wheat during 2013-14 and 2014-15 using tillage and weed control treatments. It was observed that ZT caused a considerable reduction in the population of narrow-leaved, broad-leaved and total weeds compared to CT. |
