Studies on Weed Control in Tobacco Seedbeds in India1

C. V. Raghavaiah, TT Krishnamurthy

Abstract

Five preemergence herbicides were tested for their efficacy on weed control and transplantable seedling production. The results showed that diphenamid at 6.0 and 3.0 kg/ha, trifluralin at 0.5 kg ha nitralin at 0.5 tg/ha and fluchloralin at 1.0 kg/ha applied as pre-sowing incorporated treatments were promising for selective weed control in tobacco seed beds, and interms of tobacco seedling production treatments were com-parable to weed-free control treatment. None of these herbicides showed any phytoto-xicity on sunhemp groundr.ut and sesamum crops succeeding tobacco seed nursery.
