Wheat yield maximisation: A comprehensive exploration of strategies


Mohit Yadav, Pragati Yadav and Ram Pyare

Wheat is a vital crop globally, but lodging poses a significant challenge, causing yield losses and quality reduction. Secondary source of data was used to present the review paper. Two experiments were conducted in Assam and West Bengal, India, to study the impact of growth regulators on wheat yield under different fertility levels. In Assam, the application of 150% recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) with farmyard manure (FYM) and two sprays of chlormequat chloride (CCC) + tebuconazole significantly increased grain yield by 88.5% compared to the control. Integrated nutrient management using 150% RDF + FYM and growth regulators enhanced productivity and profitability. In West Bengal, combining chlormequat chloride and tebuconazole with recommended NPK fertilizer increased grain yield to 4.6 t/ha, showing parity with other treatments and providing a sustainable strategy for enhancing wheat productivity in lodging-prone areas. Additionally, in Pakistan, input factors such as variety, sowing mode, and fertilizers significantly influenced wheat yield. This research emphasizes the importance of strategic nutrient management and lodging control measures to maximize wheat yield and enhance agricultural sustainability.
