EFFCT OF INTEGRATED WEED MANAGEMENT ON YIELD AND QUALITY OF SUNFLOWER

Abstract

Field expriments were conducted during Kharif 1984 and 1985 at Tamil Nadu Agricultural Universty Farm with sunflower var Co.2 to study the quality of sun- flower as influenced by different weed management practices. The pre-emergence application of fluchloralin at 0.75 kg/ha followed by one late manual weeding at 30 DAS enhanced the quality of sunflower and increased the protein and oil produc- tion by 130 kg and 336 kg/ha respectively over unweeded control. Fluchloralin at 1.25 kg/ha or the farmer's practice of two manual weedings at 20 and 40 DAS were the next alternative in enhancing the yield and quality of sunflower.
