Abstract
Intensive agriculture has dominated the world's food production through the use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, irrigation technology, chemical herbicides, and improved crop varieties. Even though these developments expand food grain production, but they also contributing to the habitat destruction, land degradation and environmental depletion, as they remain available in the environment for a longer period leading to soil and environmental pollution. Therefore, allelopathic potential of various crop species is one of the novel approaches to enhance the crop production and to minimize the adverse impact of synthetic chemicals.
