Abstract
An experiment was performed out at the Research Farm, University Institute of Agricultural Sciences and Technology Chandigarh University, Gharaun Mohali titled with "Relative Efficacy of Different Doses and Types of Coated Urea on Wheat Growth and Productivity in Punjab Region “during Rabi season 2020 and 2021. The soil in the experimental field had a clayey loam texture, and neutral in reactions, contained low organic carbon, accessible nitrogen and also had a medium amount of available potassium and phosphorus. The experiment consisted of 11 treatments T1: No N + Rec. P, K & Zn, T2: 100 % Rec. N through Urea + Rec. P, K & Zn, T3: 70% Rec. N through NCU + Rec. P, K & Zn, T4: 85% of Rec. N through NCU + Rec. P, K & Zn, T5: 100% of Rec. N through NCU + Rec. P, K & Zn, T6: 70% of Rec. N through ZnCU + Rec. P, K & Zn, T7: 85% of Rec. N through ZnCU + Rec. P, K & Zn, T8: 100% of Rec. N through ZnCU + Rec. P, K & Zn, T9: 70% of Rec. N through NCU + ZnCU+ Rec. P, K & Zn, T10: 70% of Rec. N through NCU + ZnCU+ Rec. P, K & Zn, T11: 70% of Rec. N through NCU + ZnCU+ Rec. P, K & Zn arranged in randomized block design with three replications. On December 9, 2020, the crop variety UNNAT PBW-343 was sowed. Full doses of P and K, as well as one-third of N, were applied at the time of sowing via inorganic sources of nutrients such as urea (Neem coated urea, Zinc coated urea, and Neem +Zinc coated urea), and the remaining two-thirds of N were applied in two equal splits at the CRI stage and pre-booting stage, depending on the treatments. Treatment T8: 100% Rec. N through ZnCU + Rec. P, K, & Zn had significantly higher plant height, leaf area index, number of tillers per metre square dry matter accumulation, number of tillers per metre row length, length of spike, grains per spike, test weight, grain yield (44.35), and straw yield (71.47) than other treatments. T8, on the other hand, remained on equality with treatments T11, T5, and T2. Treatment T8: 100 % of Rec. N through ZnCU + Rec. P, K, & Zn also had the highest net return and B: C ratio in respect to T1 and other treatments.
