Abstract
The investigation entitled “Effect of Different Treatments of NPK and FYM on Growth and Yield of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)” was conducted at research farm of University Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Chandigarh University, Gharuan (Mohali) during Rabi season 2020-2021. The experiment was carried out in Randomized Block Design with seven treatments each replicated three times. The treatments were (T1-100% NPK + 100% FYM, T2-75% NPK + 100% FYM, T3-50% NPK + 100% FYM, T4-100% NPK + 75% FYM, T5-75% NPK + 75% FYM, T6-50% NPK + 75% FYM, T7-Control). The result indicates Plant height (cm), Dry matter accumulation (g m-2), Number of tillers (m-2), Number of effective tillers (m-2), 1000 seed weight (g), Grain yield (kg ha-1), Straw yield (kg ha-1), Biological yield (kg ha-1), Harvest Index (%) were significantly affected by different treatments. Overall the results suggested that the improvement in growth, yield attributes and seed yield of wheat crop was observed with the application doses of 100% NPK + 100% FYM. However, application of 100% NPK + 75% FYM also show appreciable improvement in growth and yield of the crop. The growth and yield attributes of the wheat obtained from the treated plots were superior as compare to plots under control. It is clearly seemed from the results that the application of NPK along with FYM to be most important agronomic practice for the successful growth, development and productivity of the wheat crop.
