Reduced tillage and herbicide combo boost chickpea yield and profits.
Chickpeas grow better with reduced tillage and sequential herbicide application. This helps produce more pods, seeds, and protein. The best herbicide combo is pendimethalin followed by imezethapyr. Reduced tillage also reduces weed growth, with the best weed control efficiency seen with pendimethalin followed by bimazethapyr. This method gives higher profits and benefits compared to conventional tillage. Overall, using the right sowing method and herbicides can improve chickpea growth, reduce weeds, and increase profits.
