Integrated Weed Management in Oilseed Brassica

Abstract

The productivity of oilseeds has not increased at the same pace as it has happened in cereals. Development and large scale cultivation of input-responsive dwarf high yielding varieties and hybrids not only favours crop growth but is also conducive for the rank growth of weeds. Emphasis on cereals and a few commercial crops has driven oilseeds to less productive ecosystems.
