Response of Different Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) Varieties to Graded Levels of Nitrogen
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
The present study entitled, “Response of different wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Varieties to graded levels of nitrogen” was conducted during the winter season of 2009-10 on sandy clay loam soils of Students’ farm, College of Agriculture, Acharya N. G. Ranga Agricultural University, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad. The treatments consisted of three varieties (HP 4080, RAJ 4037 and HI 8682) and four nitrogen levels (0, 60, 120 and 180 kg N ha-1). The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with varieties as first factor and nitrogen levels as second factor with three replications. The findings of experiment are summarized below. The yield attributing characters viz., number of ears per m2, no of grains per ear, length of ear and 1000-grain weight recorded significantly higher values with RAJ 4037 when compared to other two varieties and among nitrogen levels, 180 kg N ha-1 recorded maximum values over all the lower levels of nitrogen. Interaction between varieties and nitrogen levels was found to be non significant for all the yield attributing characters
