Abstract: The effect of moisture regime and different sowing dates on growth and yield of wheat were studied. The experiments was conducted at the Agromet Farm, N.D. University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Faizabad (U.P.) during year 2014-2015 and 2015-2016. The experiments comprised of four levels of moisture regime viz., I1 (critical stages), I2 (0.6 IW: CPE ratio), I3 (0.8 IW: CPE ratio), I4 (1:0 IW: CPE ratio) and three dates of sowing namely 15th November, 25th November and 05th December wheat. Growth and yield components were determined at the time of physiological maturity. Late sowing of wheat crop drastically decreased the growth attributes and yield attributes Wheat sown at 15th Nov. followed by 25th Nov. and 05th Dec. reported maximum growth and yield attributes. Maximum reduction in growth and yield of wheat was observed by sowing on fifth December. The findings of present investigation indicated that the growth and yield attributes of wheat were significantly influence due to different moisture regime.
