Abstract
An experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2017-18 to study the effect of three dates of sowing (25th October, 25th November and 25th December) and four wheat varieties (HPW-349, HS-542, HS-490 and VL-907) on growth, yield attributes and yield at Palampur (HP), India. Wheat sown on 25th October recorded significantly highest plant height, tillers/m2, dry matter accumulation, grains/spike, grain and straw yield. Among varieties, HPW-349 and VL-907 recorded significantly highest grains/spike, tillers/m2 and dry matter accumulation hence recorded significantly highest grain yield.
