Abstract


A field experiment was conducted to study the residual effect of herbicides on germina- tion and seedling growth of succeeding crops in drill sown rice at the Main Research Station, Bangalore during the Kharif season of 1985. In situ studies revealed no significant effect on germination and seeding growth of maize, sunflower, soybean, groundnut, cowpea, cucumber and peas. However, the germination and seedling growth of sunflower was significantly reduced by 2,4-D at 1.00 kg a.i. ha-1. Bhendi was susceptible to the residues of butachlor at 1.00 kg a.i. ha-1.
