Sand mix application of pendimethalin at 1.0 kg ha-1 on 3 DAS fb Hand weeding on 20 DAS + pendimethalin at 1.0 kg ha-1 on 20 DAS resulted the maximum seed yield (1087 kg ha-1), net monetary returns (` 40546 ha-1) and B:C ratio 2.86. The uncontrolled weeds growth caused significant reduction in seed yield of blackgram.
Key words :
Blackgram, Hand weeding, Pendimethalin, Sand mix application, WCE, Weed management.
