Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2019 at Experimental Research Center of Chandigarh.University, Gharuan (Mohali) to study the effect of seed rate and row spacing on yield of late sown.wheat. There were total six treatments comprising of wheat with treatment details were M1: row spacing main plot 18 cm M2: 22 cm S1: 75 kg/ha seed rate, S2: 100 kg/ha seed rate, S3: 125 kg/ha seed rate, S4: 150 kg/ha seed rate. The experiment was laid down in split plot design with three replications with different row spacing as main plots and seed rate as subplot treatments. Growth parameters i.e. plant height (91.33 cm) at harvesting in treatment S2 followed by treatment M2 (88.83 cm), number of effective tillers at harvesting in treatment S2 (3.55) followed by treatment M2 (2.48), dry matter accumulation at harvesting in treatment S2 (711.56) followed by treatment M2 (704.80), yield attributes, grain yield highest in treatment S2.(45.83 kg/ha) followed by treatment M2 (44.00 kg/ha) and straw yield recorded highest in treatment S2 (69.05 kg/ha) followed by treatment M2 (68.15 kg/ha). Which were more in case of treatment of seed rate was S2: (100 kg/ha). And among different row spacing, M2: (22 cm) gave the best results.
