Efficacy of Flumioxazin 50% SL on weed dynamics, yield and economics of summer groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)

Deleted Journal (2021)

Shalu Kumari Ashok Pandit RK Raj Mahua Banerjee GC Malik

A field experiment was conducted during the summer season of 2018 at Agricultural farm of Palli Siksha Bhavana (Institute of Agriculture), Visva Bharati, Sriniketan, Birbhum, West Bengal to the “Studies on Efficacy of Flumioxazin in summer Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)”. The experiment comprising of eight treatments was laid out in a randomized block design with three replications. From the experimental findings it was revealed that Groundnut was infested with three categories of weeds viz. grass, sedge and broadleaf. Digitaria sanguinalis, Cynodon dactylon among the grasses Cyperus rotundus among the sedges and Alternanthera philloxeroides among the broadleaved weeds were present as predominant weeds. Among the herbicides tested, lower values of weed index, weed density, weed dry weight and highest weed control efficiency was found with the pre-emergence application of Flumioxazin 50% SL 150 g a.i ha-1 at 1 DAS which show better performed than Imazethapyr 10 SL 100 g a.i ha-1 at 1 DAS and Pendimethalin 30% EC 750 g a.i ha-1 1 DAS in case of grasses, sedges and broadleaves but was at par with Flumioxazin 50% SL 125 g a.i ha-1 at 1 DAS. Application of Flumioxazin 50% SL 150 g a.i ha-1 at 1 DAS and Flumioxazin 50% SL 125 g a.i ha-1 at 1 DAS were equally efficient in increasing the grain yield, straw yield and gross returns than untreated control but net returns (₹ 109161 ha-1) and benefit-cost ratio (3.22) was obtained maximum only with Flumioxazin 50% SL 125 g a.i ha-1 at 1 DAS. Thus, Flumioxazin 50% SL 125 g a.i ha-1 at 1 DAS appeared as promising for managing broad-spectrum weeds and higher productivity of summer Groundnut in red and lateritic soils of West Bengal.

Effect of Weed Management Practices on Weed Control, Yield and Economics of Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill]

Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology (2020)

Rabindra Kumar Raj K. K. Sinha Shalu Kumari Anup Kumar Choubey Ashok Pandit

The experiment was laid out Tirhut College of Agriculture, farm Dholi, Muzaffarpur, Bihar during kharif season 2016, to study the effect of weed management practices on weed control, yield and economics of soybean [Glycine max (L.)]. Hand weeding twice at 25 and 45 DAS was found most effective to control weeds in soybean and recorded lowest weed count, weed dry matter and highest weed control efficiency. Among herbicide, application of Pendimethalin 1.0 kg/ha as PE (Pre-emergance) and Imazethapyr 55 g/ha as PoE (Post-emergance) at 25 DAS was found to be more efficient and cost effective to reduce weed population/m2 (53.94 & 67.22), dry weight of weeds/m2 (21.16 & 45.86 g) an increased weed control efficiency (53.86 & 68.83%) significantly in both the stages 30 and 60 DAS. Beside it, Pendimethalin 1.0 kg/ha + Imazethapyr 55 g/ha at 25 DAS, Pendimethalin 1.0 kg/ha + one hand weeding at 40 DAS and hand weeding twice at 25 and 45 DAS were equally efficient in increasing the grain yield, straw yield, weed index and gross returns than control but net returns (39870/ha) and benefit-cost ratio (1.70) was obtained maximum only with Pendmethalin 1.0 kg/ha and Imazethapyr 55 g/ha at 25 DAS.

From Seed To Sustainability: A Perspective On Organic Farming

Journal of Survey in Fisheries Sciences (2022)

Shalu Kumari Mohsin Ikram Mansi Nautiyal Rachna Juyal

The innovative agricultural technique known as organic farming is at the forefront of sustainable practices, promoting biodiversity and a low dependency on artificial chemicals. This approach prioritizes the production of healthful, nutritious food while simultaneously preserving the fragile balance of our ecosystems in an effort to reshape the relationship between agriculture, the environment, and human well-being. Because of growing worries about food safety, the health of the land, and the threat of climate change, organic farming has become more and more popular in recent years. The fundamental principle of organic farming is its dedication to forgoing synthetic chemicals in favor of natural and organic inputs. Crop rotation, composting, and biological pest management are just a few of the methods used by organic farmers to create a healthy, balanced ecosystem that benefits their crops and the soil. This method has the potential to develop resilient and adaptable farming systems in addition to reducing the environmental impact of traditional agriculture. This review will explore the conceptual framework, methodological techniques, historical foundations, and current research trends in organic farming in the pages that follow. We will examine theoretical ramifications, summarize important results, critically evaluate its influence, and talk about real-world implementations. We will also discuss the obstacles that need to be overcome and outline possible future paths for this sustainable agriculture paradigm.

Effect of weed management practices on yield, quality and economics of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) during summer season

International Journal of Chemical Studies (2020)

Shalu Kumari Mahua Banerjee RK Raj Antara Chaudhuri Sujay Kumar Paul

A field experiment was conducted at Agricultural Farm, Institute of Agriculture, Visva-Bharati, Sriniketan, West Bengal on sandy loam soil during pre- kharif season 2018 to study the effect of weed management practices on yield, quality and economics of summer groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). The experiment comprising of eight treatments was laid out in a randomized block design with three replications. Among the different herbicides, application of Flumioxazin 50% SL 125 g ha-1 at 1 DAS resulted significantly higher pod yield (2991.02 kg ha-1), haulm yield (2949.18 kg ha-1), oil content (46.27%), gross return ( 143569 ha-1), net return ( 109161 ha-1) and benefit-cost ratio (3.22) over all other herbicidal treatments although weed free check was found most effective to control weeds in groundnut and recorded highest yield and gross return but lower the net return and benefit-cost ratio.

Effect of nutrient and weed management on yield, nutrient uptake and quality of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] in alluvial soil of Bihar

Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry (2020)

RK Raj KK Sinha Shalu Kumari Anup Kumar Choubey Ashok Pandit

A field experiment was conducted at Tirhut College of Agriculture, farm Dholi, Muzaffarpur, Bihar during kharif season 2016, to evaluate the effect of nutrient and weed management practices on yield, nutrient uptake and quality of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill]. The experiment was laid out in split-plot design comprising of five nutrient levels in main plot and four in weed management practices in subplots with three replications. Maximum grain yield (16.94 q/ha) and total uptake of N (140.39 Kg/ha), P (9.11 Kg/ha) and K (50.53 Kg/ha) was noticed with 50% RDF along with 2.5 t FYM/ha and Vermicompost 1.25 t/ha which was significantly superior over control but statistically at par with 50% RDF + 5 t FYM/ha. In weed management practices, maximum yield (16.71 q/ha) and total uptake of N (136.92 Kg/ha), P (9.15 Kg/ha) and K (49.84 Kg/ha) was noticed with hand weeding twice at 25 and 45 DAS which was significantly superior over control but was at par with Pendimethalin 1.0 kg/ha (Pre-emergance) + one hand weeding at 40 DAS and Pendimethalin 1.0 kg/ha (Pre-emergance) + Imazethapyr 55 g/ha (Post-emergance) at 25 DAS. Protein content was not significantly affected due to different nutrient and weed management practices however maximum protein content was found with RDF (36.11%) and Pendimethalin 1.0 kg/ha (Pre-emergance) + Imazethapyr 55 g/ha (Post-emergance) at 25 DAS (36.04 %).

International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences (2020)

Shalu Kumari Mahua Banerjee Rabindra Kumar Raj Antara Chaudhuri Sujay Kumar Paul

A field experiment was conducted during the summer seasons of 2018 at Agricultural Farm, Institute of Agriculture, Visva-Bharati, Sriniketan, West Bengal to study the effect of pre-emergance herbicide on growth, yield attributes and yield of summer groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). The experiment comprising of eight treatments was laid out in a randomized block design with three replications. Application of Flumioxazin 50% SL 150 g a.i ha-1 at 1 DAS resulted significantly higher plant height (95.33 cm), leaf area index at 60 DAS (1.8), no. of branches/plant at 60 DAS (17.33), dry matter accumulation at harvest (611.60 g m-2), no. of mature pods/plant (17.82), pod yield (3199.33 kg ha-1), haulm yield (3155.73 kg ha-1), harvest index (50.37 %), shelling percentage (71%) and minimum no. of immature pods/plant (1.27) over untreated control but was at par with Flumioxazin 50% SL 125 g a.i ha-1 at 1 DAS and weed free check.
