Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2020-21 at Experimental farm of UIAS, Chandigarh University, Gharuan (Mohali) to study the effect of different levels of nitrogen on productivity of wheat. The experiment consisted of 7 treatments comprising of different nitrogen rates i.e. RDF (120% N + 100% P), 25% N + 100% P, 50% N + 100% P, 75% N + 100% P, 125% N + 100% P, 150% N + 100% P and 0% N + 100% P were tested in Randomized block design, replicated 3 times. Results revealed that growth, yield attributes, grain yield and straw yield of wheat were increased with increasing nitrogen rate. Application of 150% N + 100% P being statistically at par with all other treatments and recorded the highest grain yield of wheat over 0% N. Nitrogen application of 150 kg ha-1 recorded higher net returns (Rs 71734 ha-1) and net returns per rupee invested (1.35).
