Performance of mustard to planting methods and weed management

Mustard has been widely cultivated during rabi season in the country and the yield level is considerably higher due to its higher water and fertilizer use efficiencies.The future of this crop is bright in India because the Government of India has provided, various support and incentive programs for oilseed growers. Growth, development and final yield are mainly affected by the space available to plants. So, it is imperative to adjust plant population through planting method. Weeds are one of the major constraints for the poor yield of mustard crop as they compete with the crop plants for moisture, nutrients, light and space. So, proper weed management is necessary for obtaining higher yield. In this context, this book identifies the proper planting methods and weed management practices for getting higher yield as well as maximum economic benefits. All the latest findings is also added in this text. The book contains the latest, authoritative and readily usable information on mustard crop.
