GRAMINICIDES IN CHICKPEA CROPS

Abstract

The results of three years of research on the effects of herbicides including graminicides on weediness and yield of chickpea in Eastern Steppes of Ukraine are submitted. The research revealed graminicide «Miura» has most controlled amount (98 %) and wet weight (99 %) of cereals annual weeds in crops of chickpea. The use of anticereals herbicides on background of soil herbicide «Advocat» created the preconditions for growth of wet mass for dicotyledonous perennial weeds and some dicotyledonous annual ones in crops of chickpeas. Therefore, authors have not revealed the optimal combination of herbicides to provide the greatest yield of chickpea.
