The experiment was conducted during rabi season 2015-16 and 2016-17. The present investigation entitled “Effect of Tillage Practices and Moisture Regimes on the Performance of Wheat” was conducted at Agronomy Research Farm, of Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Narendra Nagar (Kumarganj) Faizabad (.). The experiment was laid out in split plot design having four tillage practices (zero tillage, reduced tillage+sowing by seed cum ferti drill, conventional tillage+sowing on beds and conventional tillage+ sowing by seed cum ferti drill) as main plot treatments and five moisture regimes (irrigation at IW/CPE, irrigation at IW/CPE and irrigation at IW/CPE irrigation at 3 Irrigation each at CRI, Late jointing and Milking stage and 5 Irrigation each at CRI, Tillering, Late jointing, Flowering and Milking stage) as sub plot treatments. 20 treatment combinations were replicated three times. The result revealed that the growth, yield and nutrient uptake were recorded significantly higher in conventional tillage + sowing on bed, which was at par with conventional tillage+ sowing by seed cum ferti drill during both the years due to performance of tillage practices. However, the growth, yield and nutrient uptake were significantly higher under irrigation at IW/CPE being at par with IW/CPE ratio and 5 Irrigation each at CRI, tillering, late jointing, flowering and milking stage over rest of the treatments causes optimum availability of moisture at critical stage of the crop growth. | Effect of tillage practices and moisture regimes on the performance of growth, yield and nutrient uptake of timely sown wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
