Total numbers of 27 weed species were recorded from 26 genera and 15 families. Among these weed species the relative density was recorded highest with Cyperus rotundus (18.9%) followed by Trianthema portulacastrum (15.2%), Cynodon dactyl one (10.3%), Tridax procumbens (9.4%), Acalypha indica (6.6%), Parthenium hysterophorus (5.8%), Tribulus terrestris (4.9%), Dactyloctenium aegyptium (4.1 %) and Euphorbia hirta (3.65%).
