Achieve Bumper Soybean Harvest: The 72-Hour Weed Control Strategy
If there are weeds in any crop during farming, it means your crop is getting damaged. This can also affect the production. Today, we will talk about the soybean crop. Farmers growing soybeans can take steps like using pesticides within 72 hours of sowing, which will result in a good crop and increased production.
In Madhya Pradesh, the sowing of the main Kharif crop, soybean, is ongoing. If weed management is done from now on in advanced soybean farming, farmers can get better production of soybeans. Farmers must spray herbicides in the field within 72 hours of sowing the soybean crop. By using herbicides recommended by agricultural experts in sufficient moisture, farmers will not face problems in weed control in soybean farming, and the growth of soybean plants will also not be affected.
Chemical weed control is effective
In fact, weeds are the biggest problem in soybean farming. There are several ways to control weeds, but in this era of commercial farming, chemical weed control proves to be effective. There are several methods of chemical weed control, including the use of herbicides before sowing the crop, within 72 hours of sowing, and at the stage of 15 to 20 days old crop.
Use these medicines
Using chemical herbicides within 72 hours in the soybean crop yields good results. Because at that time, there is enough moisture available in the field and the possibility of rain remains. According to agricultural experts, herbicides such as pendimethalin, diclosulam 84WDG, and sulfentrazone 48 SC, which are available in the market under different brand names, should be used in the recommended quantity.

Why is weed management beneficial with sowing?
Manohar Singh Raj Purohit, a progressive farmer from Karmadi village in Ratlam district, explains that “farmers usually use herbicides in the soybean crop at the stage of 15 to 20 days. This often has an adverse effect on the soybean crop. Also, due to the lack of moisture, weed control is not done properly. However, if herbicides are used within 72 hours immediately after sowing soybeans, the results are good. Due to the moisture in the field, weed seeds do not germinate. The adverse effect on the soybean crop is also reduced.”
Soybean production will be bumper
Meanwhile, farmer brothers who are sowing soybeans can contact their nearest agricultural science center or agricultural officer to get information about weed management within 72 hours of sowing the crop. Additionally, following the recommendations of agricultural experts, they can use chemical herbicides to achieve a bumper yield of soybeans.
In recent years, advancements in agricultural technology have also introduced various integrated weed management practices, combining mechanical, biological, and chemical methods to optimize weed control. The adoption of genetically modified soybean varieties that are resistant to specific herbicides has further simplified weed management, allowing for more efficient and sustainable farming practices. Farmers are encouraged to stay updated with the latest agricultural research and development to continuously improve their crop yield and quality.
