Multi-Year On-Farm Trial Data on the Performance of Long- and Short-Duration Wheat Varieties against Sowing Dates in the Eastern Indo-Gangetic Plain of India
Abstract:Sub-optimal wheat productivity in the eastern Indo-Gangetic plain of India can largely be attributed to delayed sowing and the use of short duration varieties. The second week of November is the ideal time for sowing wheat in eastern India, though farmers generally plant later. Late-sowing farmers tend to prefer short-duration varieties, leading to additional yield penalty. To validate the effect of timely sowing and the comparative performance of long- and short-duration varieties, multi-location on-farm tria… Show more
