Field experiment was conducted at Research Farm AICRP on Wheat Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur (M.P.) during Rabi season, 2016-17. The experiment consisted of 12 treatment combinations viz. in main plot 2 seed rates (50 and 100 kg/ha at 20 cm) and 3 spacing (15x15, 20x 15 and 20x20 cm dibbling) and whereas sub plot included genotypes (HI 1544, HI 8737). The highest yield was obtained in dibbling 15x15 cm (50.13 q/ha) followed by line sowing @ 20 cm with seed rate of 100 kg/ha (49.54q/ha) but the differences were not significant. The increment in yield may be attributed to higher number of earheads/sq. m. The other planting options recorded significantly lower yield as compared to these two methods. The cultivar HI 8737 yielded significantly higher (47.91q/ha) as compared to HI 1544 (46.43 q/ha).
