Impact of sowing method and nitrogen management on growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Author(s): Nikhil Raghuvanshi and BN Singh
Abstract: Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was planted for two consecutive seasons (2017-18 and 2018-19) at Agronomical research farm, Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Ayodhya, India situated at middle Gangetic plain region to determine the experiment obtained in split plot design and comprised of four sowing methods (A1) Broadcasting method, (A2) Line sowing method, (A3) Furrow Irrigation Ridge Bed (FIRB) and (A4) Criss cross sowing (20× 20 cm) and five nitrogen managements treatments (B1) Control, (B2) 50% N as basal + 25% N after first irrigation + 25% N after second irrigation, (B3) 50% N as basal + 50% N after first irrigation, (B4) 25% N as basal + 25% N after second irrigation + 50% through FYM as basal, (B5) 25% N as basal + 75% through FYM as basal was laid out with three replication on crop growth, seed yield, yield components. Statistical analysis of the obtained data presented that the (A3) Furrow Irrigation Ridge Bed (FIRB) sowing method and application of nitrogen (B2) 50% N as basal + 25% N after first irrigation + 25% N after second irrigation dominated other treatments for plant growth and economics. Current results suggested that (A3) Furrow Irrigation Ridge Bed (FIRB) sowing method and (B2) 50% N as basal + 25% N after first irrigation + 25% N after second irrigation can be adopted as best treatments for wheat cultivation under semi-arid land conditions of India.
