THE EVALUATION OF DIFFERENT REGIMES WHEAT CULTIVARS UNDER AGRO CLIMATE OF DERA ISMAIL KHAN

Abstract

Climate role in agriculture filed is being vital and every cultivar of wheat has its own production climate. An experiment was carried out in which different cultivars were selected to test under agro climatic conditions of Dera Ismail Khan and also to compare the yield potential of different regimes of wheat cultivars. The study was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. There were 9 varieties under study which were Ujala-16, Millet-11, Dharabi-11, Galexy-13, Barani 70, Maxi Pak, Sonilika, Bahawalpur-79 and Blue silver. The data was collected regarding parameters plant tallness (cm), tillers plant-1, spikelet spike-1, spike length (cm), grains weight spike 1 (gm), number of grains spike 1, 1000-Grains weight (gm), Grain yield (kg ha-1) and analyzed statistically. These cultivars have a descending order of decreasing yield and yield attributes as Galexy-13 > Ujala-16 > Millet-11> Blue Silver> Dharabi-11 > Bahawalpur > Maxi Pak > Barani-70> Sonilika. Thus, Galexy-13 and Ujala-16 is indorsed in the vicinity of District Dera Ismail Khan to obtain the maximum production of wheat crop.
