Abstract

In a study on crop-weed competition in tomato the effect of different weed free periods was evaluated. The flora comprised mainly of seed geminating dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous weeds, Weeds almost smothered the crop in unweeded control and in the treatment where weed free condition was provided only for 15 days. Growth characters and yield attributes were adversely effected in these two treatments. Weed free environment for more than 30 days did not improve the yield of marketable fruits. The critical weed free period for tomato was upto 30 days from transplanting.
