The field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2021-2022 genotypes at Wheat Breeding experimental Field, Naini Agriculture Institute, SHUATS, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. The Soil of the experimental plots was sandy loam in texture with neutral soil reaction (pH 6.7). The experiment was laid out with six genotypes (NERI-301, NERI-302, NERI-303, NERI-304, NERI-305 and NERI-306) in a Randomized Block Design with four replications. Study revealed that growth parameters viz., higher plant height (105.26cm), number of effective tillers/hill (10.00/hill), and plant dry weight (22.13 g/plant) were recorded significantly higher for the genotype NERI-305.For yield attributing parameters viz., number of effective tillers (6.55/hill), number of grains/spike (63.07/spike),and test weight (49.38 g) were significantly highest for the genotype NERI-304, and yield parameters viz, grain yield (4.74 t/ha), harvest index (41.52%) were recorded significantly higher for the genotype NERI-304. spike length (13.35 cm) and straw yield (6.69t/ha) were r significantly highest for the genotype NERI-301. From the above findings gross return (1,18,500.00 INR/ha), net return (82,314.00 INR/ha) and Benefit cost ratio (2.27) were significantly highest for the genotype NERI-304.The genotype NERI-304 was found to be more potential as well as economically viable and productive over rest of the genotypes. |
