A field experiment, entitled Effect of pre and post Emergence herbicide 0n Chickpea Crop Production was conducted at the Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SAGE University, Indore (M.P.), during rabi 2019-20 The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replication having10 treatments [T1 : Metribuzin 250 g/ha as PE, T2 : Metribuzin 250 g/ha as PE + one hand weeding at 40 DAS, T3 : Quizalofop-p-ethyle 40g/ha as PoE, T4 : Quizalofop-p-ethyle 40g/ha ( PoE) + one hand weeding at 40 DAS, T5 : Oxyfluorfen 250 g/haas PE, T6 : Oxyfluorfen 250 g/haas PE + one hand weeding at 40 DAS, T7 : Stale seed bed followed by one hand weeding at 40 DAS, T8 : Straw mulching (5cm) at 5 DAS, T9: Two Hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAS, T10: Control plot]. Chickpea variety “JG-130”(bold seed) 80 kg/ha was sown the with spacing 30 x 10 cm2 apart. The recommended dose of fertilizer applied as basal 20:60:20 kg/ha, NPK through Urea, SSP and MOP. The crop was sown on 18thnov2018. and harvested on.30thmarch2019The results revealed that two hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAS produced maximum plant height, branches and no of nodules yield attributing characters, seed and stover yield kg/ha (2383 and 2193), protein content (20.14%) in seed and protein yield (480.08 kg/ha) followed by Quizalofop-p-ethyle 40g/ha as PoE+ one hand weeding at 40 DAS Net monetary returns (Rs. 69775/ha) and B:C ratio (3.5) was also found significantly, and two hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAS(3.2),Stale seed bed followed by one hand weeding at 40DAS, (3.0)and Quizalofop-p-ethyle 40g/ha(PoE)[2.9]. Whereas minimum net monetary returns (Rs.22646/ha) and B:C ratio (1.9) were recorded in control treatment.
