Effect of Integrated Nutrient Management on Growth Parameters, Yield Components and Yield of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under Central Plain Zone of Uttar Pradesh

Field experiments were conducted to studies effect of integrated nutrient management on growth parameters, yield components and yield of wheat during rabi season of 2020-21 and 2021-22 at students instructional farm, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur. The experiment consist of 10 treatments combinations in randomized block design with three replications consisted of different combination of inorganic fertilizer, organic manure and biofertilizer. Wheat variety HD-2967 was grown with the recommended agronomic practices. On the basis of results emanated from investigation it can be concluded that among the growth parameters maximum plant height at maturity was 109.25 cm and 110.12, maximum number of effective tillers is 352.67 and 355.72 and maximum spike length is 13.55 cm and 13.79 cm are associated with the treatment T10 [100%NPK + FYM + S30+ Zn5 +Azotobacter + PSB] during the both years of experimentation. Similarly, among the yield components and productivity parameters maximum values in relation to number of spikelet ear-1, grain ear-1, 1000 grain wt. (gm), grain yield (q ha-1) and straw yield (q ha-1) were found in the treatment T10 [100%NPK+FYM+S30+Zn5+Azotobacter+ PSB].
