Effect of Six Weed Management Techniques on Weed control And Growth And Yield of Plantain (Musa spp AAB cv AGBAGBA) at Nsukka

ABSTRACT 

The effects of five weed management techniques and a weed-free control on weed infestation and on the growth and yield of a plantain landrace (Musa spp. AAB Agbagba) were evaluated during the two cropping seasons of 2005 and 2006 at Nsukka, Nigeria.
