Abstract: We are currently dealing with a widespread Parthenium hysterophorus infestation. It can be found in stocks near railway tracks, in bare lands, in agriculture fields, orchards, and forests, and it has infiltrated much of the Indian continent. We are aware of Parthenium hysterophorus's noxious properties and wish to control its infestation. However, simply limiting its growth will suffice. It cannot be removed, but it can be managed through its various applications. Recently, a great deal of research has been conducted. The utilization properties of Parthenium will be investigated further. Several researchers have concluded that this review article discusses some of the properties and potential applications of Parthenium. Parthenium hysterophorus L. is an annual or ephemeral herb in the Asteraceae family (tribe: Heliantheae). Asteraceae member Parthenium hysterophorus Linn is used to treat a variety of ailments. Common names for it include Congress Weed, Carrot Weed, and Wild Feverfew. The Scourge of India is a noxious weed that was accidentally introduced into India via imported food grains in 1956 and is now one of the most feared weeds. The plant is used to treat wounds, ulcers, fever, anemia, and heart problems.
