“Response Of N, P, K, S And Zn On Growth Parameters In Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) Under Dehradun District Of Uttarakhand”

Abstract

A field experiment was carried out at research block of Shri Guru Ram Rai University, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, during rabi season 2018-19 to investigate the response of yield attributes of wheat (trticum aestivum L.) to different dosage of NPK S and Zn under irrigated conditions in Dehradun Valley, India. For this purpose, eight treatments having different dose combinations of NPK, Zn and S were tested in randomized block design (RBD) with three replicates using a net plot size 4.0×2.7m. Dosage of Nitrogen varied under studied treatments. Seven yield parameters were studied and evaluated to know if they are significantly different under each treatment or not. Statistical measures like CD, ANOVA and comparative analysis was conducted to explore responses of growth attributes such as plant population, Number of Tillers and dry matter accumulation to different treatments (fertilizer dosage combinations).
