Effect Of Planting Geometry And Weed Control Methods On Yield Components Of Wheat

Akhtar Ali , Mirza Hassan , Naveed Akhtar and Javed Iqbal

Abstract: The three row geometries were wheat planted in 30 cm apart row, 45 cm apart row and 30 cm apart rows with 3rd row skip. The eight weed control treatments were hand hoeing, mechanical hoeing, mechanical hoeing twice, Dicuran-MA, Tribunel, maize stalk mulch, harvesting of weed and seed increase rate. Among all the three row geometries, grain yield was higher in 45 cm apart rows than the usual method of planting in 30 cm row spacing. Tribunel application produced higher yield followed by mechanical hoeing twice. High 1000 grain weight was observed in the application of Tribunel, Dicuran-MA and the mulching of maize stalk. More grains/spike have been noted in the application of Tribunel. The lowest grain yield/ha, 1000 grain weight and grains/spike were recorded in the check
