Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Tillering, number of grains per spike and 1000-grain weight increased with the rate of sulfur application.
- Intervention effect Grain yield increased significantly with the rate of sulfur application.
- Intervention effect Wheat grain yield was maximum (4040 kg/ha) at 50 kg S/ha.
- Intervention effect Wheat grain yield at 50 kg S/ha was 26% more than the control treatment.
- Intervention effect The maximum number of tillers per 5 plants (110) was recorded at 50 kg S/ha.
- Intervention effect The maximum number of grains per spike (63.6) was recorded at 50 kg S/ha.
- Intervention effect The maximum 1000-grain weight (47 g) was recorded at 50 kg S/ha.
- Association Positive correlations of wheat grain yield with calcium and potassium contents in grain.
- Association Grain sodium content was negatively correlated with wheat grain yield (-0.88).
- Intervention effect Grain calcium and potassium contents were significantly higher where sulfur was applied.
- Intervention effect The maximum value cost ratio (3.52:1) was found at 25 kg S/ha.
