Abstract

Parthenium hirsutism is a weed that typically grows along roadsides, ditch banks, range areas, and pastures when the soil is damp. It is a quickly expanding weed those challenges crop plants for water, mineral nutrients, and light and serves as an insect hideout. Parthenium hirsutism morphological characteristics were assessed using the required study's four separate locations. According to the findings, less-studied regions had relatively larger plant fresh weight and moisture levels. Fresh weight, dry weight, moisture contents, and plant height showed a positive and substantial association. It was expected through regression analysis that plants dry weight and moisture contents were key factors in increasing the weight of a fresh plant. According to a recent study, the Parthenium hirsutism plant population may be declining minimizing crop plant output losses and lessening rivalry between Parthenium hirsutism and plant crops.
