Abstract :
BACKGROUND: Fertilizer management plays an important role to achieve sustainable
agriculture.
OBJECTIVES: Current study was conducted to assess response of agrophysiological
traits of wheat to apply different level of fertilizer and biologic fertilizer (Phosphorus and
Nitrogen).
METHODS: This research was carried out via factorial experiment based on randomized
complete blocks design with three replications along 2016 year. The treatments included
phosphorus fertilizer (P1: 100% Triple superphosphate fertilizer, P2: 70% Triple superphosphate
fertilizer + Barvar 2, P3: 40% Triple superphosphate fertilizer + Barvar 2, P4:
100% Barvar 2) and nitrogen fertilizer (N1: 100% urea fertilizer, N2: 70% urea fertilizer +
Azotobacter, N3: 40% urea fertilizer + Azotobacter).
RESULT: According result of analysis of variance effect of different level of phosphorus,
nitrogen fertilizer and interaction effect of treatments on all studied traits (instead harvest
index) were significant. Evaluation mean comparison result of interaction effect of treatments
on all measured traits revealed the highest amount of seed yield (6740.13 kg.ha-1),
1000-Seed weight (41.33 gr), biologic yield (16061.37 kg.ha-1), number of seed per spike
(42.50) and number of spike per square meter (383.72) were noted for N2P2 (70% Triple
superphosphate fertilizer + Barvar 2 and 70% urea fertilizer + Azotobacter) and lowest
amount of mentioned traits belonged to N1P1 (100% urea fertilizer round and 100% Triple
superphosphate fertilizer treatment).
CONCLUSION: Generally the results of this experiment showed that different levels of
nitrogen and phosphorus were effective on seed yield and its components. Finally based on
result of this research use 70% Triple superphosphate fertilizer + Barvar 2 and 70% urea
fertilizer + Azotobacter improve crop production of bread wheat and can be advised to
farmers.
