*The three biofertilizer rates F1: 1:1:1, F2: 2:1:1 and F3: 1:1:2 (v/v/v) from the highly efficient bacterial strains of; atmospheric nitrogen fixation, phosphor dissolving and potassium solubilizing, respectively. **Herbicides treatments; (H1) untreated check without weed removal by hand as control treatment, (H2) untreated check with weed removal, (H3) pendimethalin at reduced rate; 812 g a.i. ha⁻¹, as pre-emergence (after sowing and before irrigation), (H4) fluazifop-p butyl at the recommended rate; 450 g a.i. ha⁻¹ as post-emergence (30 days after sowing) and (H5) a combination of sequential application of pendimthalin at the half rate + fluazifop butyl at the recommended rate.
