An experiment was carried out in the field of at Kuthulia farm of JNKVV, College of agriculture, Rewa (M.P.) under all India coordinated research project on farming system during rabi season 2020-21. The garlic variety was given the experimental design was conducted in a RBD with three replications. The garlic crop was planted on 17/10/2020 at planting geometry of 20 cm x 10 cm in all treatment except in T4 (Stale seed bed + reduced spacing up to 25% + mulching with paddy straw + one hand weeding) in which row to row spacing reduced in 25%. The nutrient was applied at the rate of equivalent to 120 kg N/ha through 1/3rd N through from FYM, 1/3rd through vermicompost and 1/3rd through mustard oil cake while in T6 and additional amount of mustard oil cake 5 t/Ha was applied in garlic crop. The garlic crop was harvested was 3rd and 4th April 2021 and was fertilized with the manorial dose 120 kg N through FYM, vermicompost and mustard oil cake as given in rice. The treatment were T1 (Two hand weeding at 25 and 50 DAT), T2: (Cono weeder-25 DAT + one HW at 50 DAT), T3 Inter cropping with Dhaincha in rice and mustard in garlic in 3:1 row system), T4 (Stale seed bed + reduced spacing up to 25% + mulching with wheat straw +one hand weeding), T5 (Locally available weed mulch + 1 hand pulling), T6 (Incorporation of mustard oil cake 15 days before sowing @ 5 t/ha + 1 HW) and T7 (ITK treatment on weed control practices by farmers as mulching with leaf of mango). The same weed control treatments were given in rice and garlic and planted in the same layout and field. The both crops were grown under organic production system.
