Title: Effects of Sowing Method and Seed Rate on Growth and Yield of Wheat (Triticum aestivum)
Abstract: 3 Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during winter season of 2004-2005. Three sowing methods and seed rate were evaluated in a four replicated RCBD method. Results revealed that all growth and yield parameters were significantly affected by the sowing methods and seed rates. The interaction of sowing methods and seed rates significantly effected on spikes per plant and grains per spike, while other characters showed non significant interactions. Wheat sown by drilling method at the seed rate of 150 kg/ha significantly increased the plant vigor and yield. This increase in yield was associated with the progressive increase in all growth components.
