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.
