dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of weed management on growth anil yield of banana cv. Nendran and to identify the critical stages of weeding so as to get maximum returns. Reduction in growth parameters was observed in plots unweeded up to harvest and up to six months after planting compared to frequent monthly weeded plots. Conventional weeding and weeding up to late vegetative phase and bunch maturation phase resulted in more or less similar effect with respect to growth characters, duration and yield. Hence weeding during the first six months is critical for maximum growth and higher yield. Conventional weeding was found to he the most economical practice in banana. | en_US |
