INTRODUCTION
In india more than 70% population of this region depends upon agriculture for livelihood while the land suitable for agriculture is limited .The multifarious trees deliberately retained by the farmers on the farm bund forms the agroforestry combinations.Weed infestation is one of the major factors limiting crop productivity. Weeds not only reduce the yield but also make the harvesting operation and ensuring food security ,effective weed management is very essential.
AGROFORESTRY
Agroforestry is the any sustainable land-use system that maintains or increases total yield by combining food crop (annuals) with tree crop (perennials) and/or livestock on the same unit of land ,either alternately or at the same time .
Agroforestry
P.K.R. Nair
BENEFIT OF AGROFORESTY Reduction of pressure of forest. Increment in an output of food ,fuel wood, fodder ,
timber,gum etc. Reduction of surface run-off, soil erosion and
leaching Increment in soil nutrients through addition and
decomposition litter fall.
AGRI-HORTI SYSTEM
Agri-horti system
Horticulture crops
Agriculture crops
Agri-horti system is the cultivation of agricultural crops in combination with fruit trees on the same piece of land.
WHAT IS WEED?
o “ Weed is an unwanted plant growing where is not desired.’’
o Weeds are unwanted or undesirable plants
compete with crops for water, soil nutrients, light and space (i.e. CO₂) and thus reduce crop yields.
Jethro Tull 1731
Weed species Scientific name Family
GrassesCynodon dactylon (L.) Poaceae
Echinochloa colonum Poaceae
Sedges Cyperus rotundus (L.) Cyperaceae
Broad leaved weed
Trianthema monogyma (L.) Aizoaceae
Amaranthus virdis Amaranthaceae

Infestation of weeds in Mungbean

WEED COMPETITION
Weeds compete with crop plants for moisture, nutrients,light and space, thereby depriving the crop of vital inputs.
Therefore, weed competition is one of the most important constraints in crop production.
Weed control measures
Preventive
methods Cultural control
Mechanical control
Chemical weed control
Weed management practices
Preventive method
Sowing time Use clean mungbean seed free from weed
seeds Crop density and plant spacing Row spacing and seed rate
Summer tillage Field preparation Crop Rotations Maintenance of optimum plant
population Mulching
Cultural control
MULCHING
Mulching may be defined as the application of any material that is applied on the soil surface to prevent the loss of water due to evaporation.
Tillage Hand weeding Hand Hoeing
Mechanical control
Tillage may be defined as the breaking of hard pan of soil to make it aerated and loose.
Tillage
It is done by physical removal or pulling out of weeds by hand .
Hand weeding
CHEMICAL WEED CONTROL
Herbicide : A chemical use for killing or inhibiting the
growth of unwanted plant.
Use herbicides chemical and rate in mungbean

CONCLUSION
Mechanical weed control method (hand weeding) is the best method of weed control and improving mungbean yield for the small areas in agri- horti system.
Chemical weed control i.e. Imazethapyr was most effective in suppressing weeds and improving mungbean yield in agri- horti system.
