Abstract: Two years field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2016-17 and 2017-18 at AICRP-Weed Management Farm, AAU, Anand to study the combine effect of organic manure and weed management practices on weeds and yield of transplanted rabi fennel. Among organic manure, application of vermicompost 8.0 t/ha recorded significantly higher seed yield of fennel as compared to application of FYM 20 t/ha. Among weed management practices, application of paddy straw mulch 10 t/ha fb HW at 30 and 60 days after transplanting (DATP) and IC+HW carried out at 30 and 60 DATP fb earthing-up at 75 days after transplanting recorded significantly lower density and dry biomass of monocot and dicot weeds at harvest. Significantly the highest seed yield (2.88 t/ha), gross return (Rs. 288000/ha), net return (Rs. 196116/ha) and B:C ratio (3.13) was achieved under application of paddy straw mulch 10 t/ha fb HW at 30 and 60 DATP.
