Farmers who delay wheat sowing need proper crop care. This article provides 8 easy and effective tips to protect your crop from damage and increase production.

Fertilizer Management

• Apply urea 40 kg/acre in rainy areas.
• Irrigate in areas without rainfall.
• Do not use excess nitrogen (urea) if the crop is yellow.

Irrigation Management

• Avoid irrigation if there is a possibility of rain.
• Irrigate judiciously to avoid waterlogging.

Weed Management

• Spray clodinafop (160 g/acre) or pinoxaden (400 ml/acre) for narrow leaves.
• Use 2,4-DE (500 ml/acre) or metsulfuron (8 g/acre) for broad leaves.
• For mixed weed control, spray sulfosulfuron or mesosulfuron.

Yellow Rust Disease Management

• Do regular inspection.
• When symptoms appear, spray propiconazole (0.1%) or tebuconazole + tri fluoxytrobin (0.06%).



Termite Control

Treat seeds with chlorpyrifos (4.5 ml/kg seed) or fipronil (4.5 ml/kg seed).




Fertilizer Dosage

• For late sowing in irrigated areas, use 125 kg/ha seed.
• Apply fertilizer 90:60:40 kg/ha (nitrogen, phosphorus, potash) timely.



For higher production

Spray 02% chlormequat chloride and 01% tebuconazole in 50-55 days. By following these suggestions, farmers can improve the production and quality of their crops.
