Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect November sowing produced significantly higher grain yield than December sowing.
- Intervention effect Boron at 3 kg ha-1 produced higher grain yield than 0 and 1 kg ha-1.
- Association Sowing date and boron level interacted significantly for grain and seed yield.
- Intervention effect Boron at 3 kg ha-1 improved seedling root and shoot length and vigour indices I and II.
- Intervention effect Earlier sowing increased germination.
- Intervention effect Boron level did not affect germination.
- Recommendation The authors recommend sowing wheat from 15 to 30 November with 3 kg ha-1 boron in Chitwan or similar environments for high seed quality.
