In a study on chickpea at Parbhani, two hand weedings resulted in the highest plant height, plant spread, branches, root nodules and dry matter followed by one hoeing + 2 hand weedings, pendimethalin 0.75 kg/ha as pre-emergence, and quizalofop-p-ethyl 40 g/ha as post-emergence. Among the herbicidal treatments, the pre-emergence application of pendimethalin 0.75 kg/ha was effective in recording higher growth parameters followed by quizalofop-p-ethyl 40 g/ha as post-emergence. The highest grain and straw yields were recorded with one hoeing + two hand weedings, followed by 2 hand weedings.
