Studies on Chemical Weed Control in Relation to Irrigation Levels in Finger Millet (Eleusine coracana Gaertn.)

Abstract

Simazine and atrazine were more efficient but not selective on ragi. Nitrofen was the most selective pre-emergence herbicide for the crop at 0.5kg a. i./ha and it also recorded the maximum profit. 2, 4-D was useful as a post-emergence herbicide. Different moisture regimes had no influence on the various yield attributes and yield in the first year. All the moisture levels influenced the grain yields independently, since the crop was raised in the rainless summer season.
