Abstract: Weeds are serious problem in all vegetable crops but they are even more so in kharif season crops. The problem of controlling weeds has been taken by studying various cultural and chemical method to the extent of different degrees of success by workers all over the world. In this chapter, a brief review of various experimental findings of different experiments covering important aspect of weed flora, losses caused by weeds and effect of weed management practices on crops, yield and yield attributes, use of chemical and cultural methods of weed management and economics is given below.
Keywords: Weed management practices, oxyfluorfen, pendimethalin, Onion
