Abstract

A field study was conducted on the Aridisols during the winter seasons (rabo of 2001-02 and 2002-03 to evaluate suitable herbicide for management of weeds in blond psyllium (Plantago ovata Forsk.). Application of oxadirgyl Q 50 g/ha 15 days after sowing (DAS) recorded maximum seed yield (1,833 kg/ha) and net returns (Rs 25,244Iha) closely followed by pre-emergence application of isoproturon Q 600 g/ha which gave seed yield of 1,729 kg/ha and net returns of Rs 23,1220tha. Due to phytotoxic effect on the crop, oxyfluorfen applied Q 50 or 75 g/ha 15 DAS remained inferior to oxadirgyl 50 g/ha applied 15 DAS.
