- Intervention effect Farmyard manure priming gave the tallest plants, most tillers, longest spikes, most spikelets and grains, highest grain yield and harvest index in both varieties.
- Intervention effect Compost manure produced heavier grains than other interactions.
- Intervention effect Sodium chloride gave maximum biological yield in both varieties.
- Intervention effect Dry sowing followed by flooding gave maximum grain yield and several yield components in both varieties.
- Intervention effect Sprouted seeding in flooded fields gave maximum 1000-grain weights.
- Intervention effect Dry seed in flooded field gave the highest biological yield.
- Intervention effect Soaked seed followed by flooding gave maximum harvest index.
- Intervention effect Seed rates of 200 and 250 kg ha -1 gave maximum 1000-grain weight for Israr Shaheed and Goma-8 respectively.
- Intervention effect Biological yield was highest at a 175 kg ha -1 seed rate.
- Recommendation The authors concluded that farmyard manure priming, dry sowing then flooding, and seed rate up to 150 kg ha -1 enhanced wheat yield attributes.
