effect of different herbicides on weed control in cotton and soybean intercropping system

A field experiment was conducted at cotton research scheme farm, vnmkv, parbhani during kharif season 2015-16 and 2016-17 in randomized block design with seven treatments in three replicates. sowing was done by dibbling with spacing 120 cm x 30 cm for bt.cotton and for soybean 60cm x 5cm. the result indicated that, spraying of pre emergence application of oxyflurofen 23.5% ec at 0.1 kg/ha ai followed by hand weeding and hoeing at 6 week after sowing (was) recorded significantly highest seed cotton equivalent yield (1868 kg ha^-1), gross monetary returns (8159 rs/ha) and net monetary returns (39024 rs/ha) over rest of the treatment except it was on par with application of pre emergence application of pendimethalin 30% ec at 0.75 kg/ha ai with hand weeding and hoeing at 6 was and alachlor 50 % ec at 2.0 kg/ha ai followed by hand weeding and hoeing at 6 was. the treatment spraying of pre emergence application of oxyflurofen 23.5% ec at 0.1kg/ha ai followed by hand weeding and hoeing at 6 was was found productive and profitable followed by pendimethalin 30% ec at 0.75 kg/ha ai with hand weeding and hoeing at 6 was and alachlor 50 % ec at 2.0 kg/ha ai followed by hand weeding and hoeing at 6 was.
