A field experiment was conducted during kharif seasons of 2013 and 2014 at Livestock Farm, JNKVV, Jabalpur (M.P.). Eight treatments comprising of four doses of propaquizafop + imazethapyr mixture (47+66, 50+70, 53+74 and 56+78 g/ha), alone application of propaquizafop (75 g/ha) and imazethapyr (100 g/ha), hand weeding twice (20 and 40 DAS) including weedy check were laidout in randomized block design with three replications. Post-emergence application of propaquizafop + imazethapyr mixture at 53 + 74 and 56 + 78 g/ha at 30 days after application effectively curbed the density and dry weight of grasses, sedges and broad-leaved weeds and attained superior values of weed indices, yield attributing traits, seed and haulm yields comparable to hand weeding twice (20 and 40 DAS). But found superior over application of mixture at lower rates (47 + 66 and 50 + 70 g/ha), alone application of propaquizafop (75 g/ha) and imazethapyr (100 g/ha) which attained the inferior values of weed indices due to poor weed control.
