Yield attributes and yield of various varieties of wheat under different dates of sowing in rice based cropping system in Chhattisgarh
Abstract:
A field experiment was carried out at Research cum Instructional Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur during
rabi season of 2011-2012 to find out suitability of various varieties of wheat under different dates of sowing in rice based cropping system in Chhattisgarh. The experiment was laid out in a Split plot design with five sowing dates (26 November, 06 December, 16 December, 26 December and 05 January) and four varieties (Kanchan, GW-273, Sujata and Amar). The results of experiment reveals that maximum numbers of grains/ ear head were observed in earlier sowings as compare to delay sowing highest value of observed in D
1 in the variety GW-273 (43.9) and Kanchan (35.7). Dates of sowing significantly influenced grain yield (kg/ha) in different varieties. Maximum grain yield was observed in D
1 as compare to delayed sowings (D
2, D
3, and D4). Under the D
1 the grain yield was observed maximum in Sujata and minimum in Kanchan.
