Abstract
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the main cereal crops in India. It is widely cultivated, produced and used throughout the world. Of all grain crops, wheat is the most popular staple food for human consumption. The combination of grassy and broadleaf herbicides was much better than their separate application to control weeds in wheat crops. The regular use of herbicides such as isoproturon has not only caused resistance to the herbicides in Phalaris minor but, it has also caused the movement of weeds. Long-term strategies to manage or avoid tolerant and herbicide-tolerant weeds should include the integration of non-chemical methods with chemical products (rotation and mix of herbicides) for the sustainable production of wheat.
