f. Variety/Implements released: Nil
g. Research Recommendations:
Joint AGRESCO-2013 recommendation :
Recommendation:
In Konkan region, for obtaining higher yield and net returns, it is recommended to follow
conventional tillage to direct seeded Kharif rice and zero tillage be adopted for succeeding rabi
Lablab bean in combination with two hand weedings to each crop at 20 & 40 DAS. If hand
weeding is not possible, pre- emergence application of oxadiargyl @ 0.12 kg/ha for both the
crops is recommended.
