The experiment consisted of four dates of sowing viz., D1: 25 standard week (18-24 June), D2: 26 standard week (25June01July), D3: 27 standard week (02-08 July), and D4: 28 standard week (9-15 July) and three hybrids viz. Bio-9681, Prabal and PEHM-2 was laid out in split plot design with three replications. The sowing was done on 18th June, 25th June, 2 July and 9th July being the first day of standard weeks 25, 26, 27 and 28, respectively. The result revealed that date of sowing has maximum bearing the grain yield of maize during rainy...

The results revealed that wheat sown at 25 November gave the highest grain yield than 10 December sowing. In both the experiments, statistically same grain yield was obtained with different planting methods. In the first experiment, wheat sown with zero tillage and conventional tillage with crop residue gave higher average grain yield.
