Abstract

Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the most important staple food crops in India, ranking second after rice in terms of area and production. It plays a crucial role in ensuring food security for millions of Indians. The experiment was conducted during 2022-23 at the soil research farm of CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar. Applying 130% of RDN increased the wheat crop yield to 52.09 q/ha, while the control recorded a minimum of 25 q/ha. It also enhanced the available nitrogen in the soil.  Wheat grain and straw yields significantly increased with higher nitrogen doses, except at 145% of high nitrogen doses, where the wheat grain yield decreased. In all treatments with high doses of N and the recommended dose of fertiliser (RDF), soil pH and electrical conductivity showed no statistically significant differences.
