Abstract :

A field experiment was conducted at J. S. University shikohabad U.P. agriculture farm house during the winter seasons of 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 to study the Different Wheat Variety and Sowing Methods on Grain Yield of Wheat crop. Variety comprises of PBW-343 and PBW-502 were allocated in main plot whereas three sowing methods System of wheat intensification (SWI) at 22 cm × 22 cm, Line sowing at 26 cm × continuous and broadcasting were allocated in sub-plot under split plot design with four replications. PBW502 variety gave higher grain yield as compared to PBW-343 variety. SWI at 22 cm × 22 cm recorded significantly higher tillers (269 and 256 m-2) as compared to line sowing at 26 cm and broadcasting during both the years. SWI at 22 cm × 22 cm spacing recorded significantly higher grain yield (3820 and 3915 kg/ha) during 2019-2020 and 2020-2021, respectively. But it was found at par with line sowing at 25 cm x continuous method. Economic analysis of different sowing methods showed that both line sowing and SWI were found superior over broadcasting method. Highest Net returns of NPR 73,185 and 63,545 was obtained from line sowing and SWI methods respectively..
