Response of Wheat on Seed Rate and Irrigation Levels

Abstract

This paper was prepared by reviewing documents and research findings from studies conducted focusing on interaction effect of seed rate and irrigation level on wheat crops. The temporal and spatial coverage of the research findings was between 2009 and 2016. Approaches followed on the response of crops to irrigation level and seed rates were through reviewing journals from websites and research output reports. In this review, achievements of different seed rates for different irrigation levels on crops under diverse agro-ecologies are highlighted based on the current knowledge from available sources. Research findings revealed that interactive effect of seed rates and amount of irrigation water had significantly improved yield of crops. Therefore, based on the current findings, application of seed rate increased for irrigated crops the yield also increased and be combined with the required amount of irrigation water and seed rate.
