Wheat seed rate has been and still is a common controversy of among the farmers and agricultural researchers under unique cultural conditions throughout Punjab. We have not only justified the strength of 50 kg over 40 and 60 kg/acre but video clips of data supporting the reasoning of better yield of 50 kg have also been discussed in this video. It has been stressed that inspite of lesser germination in 40 kg seed rate, production of 50 maunds of wheat grain per acre is possible but on the expense of more inputs in case of early planted crop. 60 kg seed rate can not deliver better results in case of early planting. Its yield may sometimes be at par but quality can not match with 50 kg/acre. Intra row plant competition may be so hard that most plants remain weak and may have only a single tiller in case of 60 kg/acre. As regards the 50 kg/acre, it is the king seed rate which provides 50 maunds per acre even with lesser input of fertilizers. That is why, department of agriculture recommends this seed rate for most common conditions all over Punjab to achieve an optimum yield. Production technology of wheat revolves about this seed rate in present conditions of climate and soils in our country. The deviation from this seed rate leads to lesser production and yield and we do not get better health and growth of plants in wheat crop due to this factor.
Use of 50 kg/acre seed is a general recommendation from the department of agriculture for medium season (November) planted wheat crop in most of the normal soils of Punjab Province. In this video, we have argued about and endorsed why this recommendation is better than 30-40 or 60-70 kg/acre in most cases.
We have suggested that 50 kg/acre provides 8-10 lac plants and 12-16 lac fertile (ear bearing) tillers. In this case, maximum primary tillers perform better due to an optimum plant competition and result into 5-8% more production than 40 and 60 kg/acre. In case of 40 kg, may sometime equal to the 50 kg bur number of infertile tillers is more than 50 kg/acre. In case of 60 kg or more seed rate, primary tillers are even more than 50 kg but a stiff plant competition is induced which results into smaller ears all having smaller grains resulting into reduced gran yield.
