Abstract
A herbicidal trial on pineapple variety 'Kew' was undertaken at the
Pineapple Research Centre, Kerala Agricultural University Vellanikkara during
the years 1974-76 to test the efficacy of diuron and bromacil at different doses-
The herbicides in general effectively controlled a broad spectrum of weeds. Among
different dosages tried, diuron 3 kg per hectare was more effective and the treatment
gave significantly increased yield without producing any harmful effects to
fruit quality. From the point of economics also, diuron 3 kg per hectare was
more economical.
