This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different chemical and hand weeding methods on chickpea weed control as randomized complete block design (RCBD) with 14 treatments and three replications in the research station of Kurdistan University in spring of 2015. Treatments included; paraquat and glyphosate with recommended dose as preplant, paraquat and glyphosate with recommended dose as pre-emergence, paraquat, glyphosate (between rows) and lentagran with recommended dose in 2-4 leaf stage of weeds, paraquat, glyphosate (between rows) and lentagran with 50% recommended dose in 2-4 leaf stage of weeds, hand weeding in stage of chickpea establishment, flowering and both (establishment and flowering) stages. Weed free and weed interference throughout crop growth period were included as controls too. Results showed that, among the herbicide treatments, the highest weed density and dry weight at harvest stage were belong to recommended dose of paraquat and glyphosate before planting. Lentagran with recommended dose in the 2-4 leaf stage of weeds had lowest weed density and dry matter whereas, there was no significant difference between paraquat and glyphosate at the recommended dose at none of the stages, i.e. before planting, before emergence and 2-4 leaf stage of weeds. Among all treatments, hand weeding at both stages (establishment and flowering) caused highest reduction in density and dry weight of weed and had no difference with weed free treatment. The highest seed yield (1150 kg / ha) equal to 78/92% of weed free control was belong to weeding in two stages (establishment and flowering), which had no significant difference with Lentagran. Among other treatments, paraquat pre-emergence and 2-4 leaf stage of weeds with recommended dose and glyphosate with 50% recommended dose in the 2-4 leaf stage of weeds had the highest seed yield and there were no difference among them. In summary, to control weeds and achieve maximum seed yield, It can be recommended 1- weeding in two stages (establishment and flowering) 2- Lentagran and 3- paraquat in 2-4 leaf stage of weeds with recommended dose in row planted fields respectively.
