Abstract

Field experiment was conducted during kharif and rabi seasons of 2005-2006 to study the growth and productivity in maize-sunflower cropping system as influenced by tillage and weed management methods. The result revealed that growth attributes viz., plant height and dry matter production were increased by continuous conventional tillage with hand weeding on 20 and 40 DAS. Similarly yield attributes and yield were also significantly higher with continuous conventional tillage with hand weeding on 20 and 40 DAS.
