Abstract
A field experiment was performed during the Rabi season of 2020-21 at research farm of University Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Chandigarh University, Gharuan, Mohali (Punjab), to evaluate the effect of varying nitrogen levels on growth and yield of wheat. Seven levels of nitrogen i.e. 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 kg ha-1 were evaluated. Experiment was conducted under randomized block design (RBD) with three replications. Observations and data was recorded for yield and yield contributing attributes like number of grains per spike, spike length, test weight, grain yield, biological yield and harvest index. All the yield parameters were significantly increased by different levels of nitrogen. Maximum spike length, number of grains per spike, test weight and highest grain and biological yield was recorded from the treatment where nitrogen was applied @ 180 kg ha-1
