| dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications to study the efficacy of weed management practices in organic finger millet during /chan/2012 at Main Research Station, University of Agricultural Sciences, Hebbal, Bengaluru, Among the treatments tried to manage weeds, hand weeding twice produced the highest grain yield (5460 kg ha'1) and was on par with stale seedbed combined with inter cultivation twice (5365 kg ha'1) as a result of weed control efficiency (93.2 % and 91.6 %, respectively). Nutrient uptake by finger millet was higher in hand weeding twice (95.3 N, 16.2 P and 68.2 K kgha"1) followed by stale seedbed technique combined with inter cultivation twice (93.7, 15.3 and 66.5, kg ha'1 respectively). Unweeded check resulted in yield reduction of 50% due to the lowest uptake of the nutrient by finger millet was in unweeded control treatment (56.4 N, 4.8 P and 40.1 K kg ha'^.The stale seedbed technique with inter cultivation twice at 20 and 35 DAP followed by hand weeding twice at 20 and 30 DAP recorded the highest net return and B:C ratio (Rs. 56,939 and 56,545 ha_1and 2.61, and 2.56, respectively). | en_US |
