Abstract:

Based on determined Pc, Pf and optimum level of N fertilizer for bread wheat, verification and demonstration activities were under taken during 2013-2014 growing season continuatively to verify and to popularize the determined Pc, Pf and optimum nitrogen at specified area. These verification and demonstration experiments were under taken on 14 and 6 farmer’s fields, respectively. Both verification and demonstration experiments had three treatments that include determined/calibrated phosphorus (critical concentration) with recommended optimum N fertilizer for the area, existing NP fertilizer recommendation (blanket recommendation) and one control plot without NP application for bread wheat. The treatments were laid down on randomized complete block design on 10 m by 10 m plot area that was replicated over the farmers. The yield were harvested from (5 m by 5 m) plot area and mean comparison of grain yield was also computed at (α
