Annual Planning of

Weed Pest Management

What to do to

Increase production by

Managing Losses due to

Weed Pest

Annual Planning of Weed Pest Management :

10 % production increase

Food grain + Oilseeds + Hoticulture:

260+30+260 = 550 mt (Present)

Annual Planning of weed management

More production by reduce losses - 55 mt

Food grain + Oilseeds + Horticulture:

286 +33 + 286 = 605 mt (Present)

CONCEPTS OF APWPM

1. Before crop planting

Reduce Weed Seed under Soil

2. After Crop Planting

Reduce Weed competition

to Crop during Critical Crop

Weed Competition Period

Enhanced Crop Health by

using more balance nutrition

STEP 1 – PRE PLANTING CARE

Grow Lugumes (Two months fallow)

Use Ecosafe Herbicide in

moist soil (One month fallow)

Removal of weed residues includingCyperus nut

during land preparation and use for Compost

Use of more biofertilizers, Neem cake, Vermicomposts etc.

More Balance Nutrition helps to reduce pests

Step 2 – Reduce weed competition in CCWCPUse of PE ecosafe botanicals /chemical herbicides

Use of POE mechanical weeding / ecosafe

chemical herbicides at 25-40 DAP

Effect of PE & POE herbicides

on soil and plant health

Reduce growth and development of crop

plants in important physiological stages

Germination by PE herbicides

Urease Enzyme activity by PE herbicides

Nodule development; Tuber bulking; CRI; Bulb

formation; Branching; Tillering etc. by POE herbicides

Growth and development of Soil micro flora

by both PE and POE herbicides
