Investigating the Impact of Nitrogen and Seed Rates on Morpho-physiological Responses in Dual Purpose Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) | Chapter 6 | Cutting-edge Research in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 4

 Growing two-purpose crops together, i.e. both grains and fodder, may be a good choice to reduce the pressure of growing alarming human populations. Wheat could be a better choice to alleviate the scarcity of both grains and fodder. In this direction, several works were carried out considering wheat, but the production was a constraint. Changes in fertiliser concentrations and seed rate are very important for different agronomic methods that affect yield. Nitrogen is one of the major fertiliser components that plays a crucial role in the growth of crops, including photosynthesis, protein synthesis, synthesis of nucleic acids, etc. The seed rate is directly linked to the expansion of the canopy and the interception of solar radiation, thus significantly affecting the use of environmental resources by altering the relative importance of intra- and interplant competition for light, water and nutrients during crop production and thus affecting the yield of wheat. In order to obtain information on the impact of seed rates and nitrogen levels on the forage and grain yield of dual-purpose wheat genotypes for enhanced productivity, this study was carried out with a view to the importance of the issue. Rising dual-purpose wheat is becoming increasingly important. For improved efficiency, parameters discussed in the manuscript may be taken into consideration. In order to serve both dual purposes, deep physiological and biochemical insights are needed to understand the factors that regulate both vegetative growth and grain production in wheat.
