Contrast statements indicate differences in means between treatments.

${\text{TM}}^{\overline{\text{T}}}$, herbicides used as tank-mix; ns denotes non-significant at P < 0.05.

^{* and **}represent significant differences at P < 0.05 and P < 0.01, respectively. LSD denotes Fisher's least significant differences value at 0.05 level of probability.
