Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season 2020-2021 at Experimental farm of University Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Chandigarh University, Gharuan (Mohali) to study the effect of different sources of nutrients and crop residue management on growth and yield of wheat. The experiment comprised of 7 treatments of different combinations of nutrients and crop residue i.e. RDF (100%) + crop residue, FYM @4 t ha-1 + crop residue, FYM @2 t ha-1 + 50% RDF + crop residue, FYM @1 t ha-1 + 25% RDF + crop residue, VC @1.4 t ha-1 + crop residue, VC @0.7 t ha-1 + 50% RDF + crop residue and VC @0.35 t ha ha-1 + 25% RDF + crop residue. The experimental design was conducted in RBD (Randomized block design) with three replications. Results revealed that growth, yield attributes, grain yield and straw yield of wheat were increased with the application of RDF 100% + crop residue. The yield attributes and yield of the crop were highest with the application of RDF (100%) + crop residue. The grain yield was 44.91% more in RDF 100% + crop residue treatment than the lowest in FYM @4 t ha-1 + crop residue.
