Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2022-2023 at the instructional farm, AKS, University, Sherganj, Satna (M.P.) site is situated at the latitude of 230 58’ N and longitude of 80 0 81, East in kymore plateau of M.P. The experiment consisted of 12 treatments in randomized block design with 3 replications viz; T₁ V1N1 JW-3336 + 80 kg \ha, T₂ V1N2 JW-3336 + 100 kg\ha, T₃ V1N3 JW-3336 + 120 kg\ha, T₄ V2N1 Pusa Tejas + 80 kg\ha, T₅ V2N2Pusa Tejas + 100 kg\ha, T₆ V2N3 Pusa Tejas + 120 kg\ha, T₇ V3N1 GW-17 + 80 kg\ha, T₈ V3N2 GW-17 + 100 kg\ha, T₉ V3N3 GW-17 + 120 kg\ha, T₁₀ V4N1 JW-3288 + 80 kg\ha, T₁₁ V4N2 JW-3288 + 100 kg\ha, T₁₂ V4N3 JW-3288 + 120 kg\ha. In general, enhanced at the faster rate between 30 days up to 60 days stage of plant growth and reached maximum up to 90 days stage. At 90 days stage, the plant height ranged from 66.30 cm in N80 to 61.04/plant in N120 treatment. The tillers were ranged from 115.37 to 127.09/m2 at 60 DAS and from 125.05 to 136.71/m2 at 90 DAS stage of plant growth. varieties, Pusa Tejas resulted in significantly higher length of spike (10.70 cm), number of healthy seeds (31.0/spike), test weight (39.75 g) and seed yield (19.79/plant). The second and third best varieties were JW-3288 and JW-3336. Pusa Tejas gave the maximum net income up to Rs. 67361/ha with 3.01 B:C ratio. The variety JW-3288 stood the second best (Rs. 62800/ ha with 2.87 B:C ratio). The variety JW-3336 was the third best (Rs. 59408 /ha with 2.77 B:C ratio). The lowest net income (Rs. 58635/ha with 2.75 B:C ratio) was secured from GW-17 variety of wheat.
