Meeting the food requirements of increasing population, production of more wheat is one of the key areas for researchers. Selection of cultivar with respect to sowing time for a particular agro-ecological zone plays a vital role in the improvement of wheat productivity. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to work out the suitable sowing time for the cultivars' high yield at the Herbarium of Malakand University, Dir th and 22 nd ) were applied to main plot, while ten wheat cultivars (Pak-2013, Dharabi-2011, Tatara, Lalma, Chakwal-50, Shahkar-2013, Pirsabak-2005, Hashim-2008, KT-2000 and Siran-2010 ), respectively. It was concluded that early sowing in the season improved the yield and yield component of wheat crop. Wheat cultivar Pakistan-2013 was found the best in all aspects. Hence, wheat cultivar Pakistan-2013 is recommended for early sowing, while wheat cultivars Shahkar-2013 and Chakwal-50 are recommended for late sowing in the rainfed areas of Malakand division particularly Dir valley.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
