Soybean is rapidly emerging as the most important oil seed crop in India. A field experiment was conducted during kharif 2018 to study the effect of chlorimuron herbicides on physiology of growth, productivity and quality of soybean (Glycine max L.). Data exhibited that hand weeding had shown better result compared to all other herbicide treatments. Hand weeding is traditional and effective method of weed control, but untimely and continuous rains as well as unavailability of labour during peak period of demand are the main limitations of manual weeding. Therefore, there is a need for alternative methods of reducing the weed load during early crop growth period of soybean i.e. first 30-45 DAS. The various herbicide treatments also increased vital physiological parameters Viz., LAI, CGR, RGR, SLA, SLW and BMD.
