Effect of drip irrigation and fertigation on quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Abstract

Field trials were conducted in the winter months of 2017-18 and 2018-19 to examine the effect of irrigation water and fertilization levels on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield and quality. The trial was carried out with four changes in SPD, four irrigation methods in the main plot and four fertilization stages in the second plot, for a total 16 combinations. Research has shown that scheduling 1.0 PEF drip irrigation can increase crop yields better than 0.6 PEF drip irrigation and 100% RDF drip irrigation fertilization level, resulting in more winter wheat, hay and higher protein yields. It shows that it improves wheat yield and quality. With fertilization, the RDF of rice is more than 50%.
