A field experiment was conducted at Department of Agronomy, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani during Rabi season of 2009-10 with a view to find out a response of different fertilizer levels and varieties on growth and yield of wheat and to find interaction effect of fertilizer levels and varieties. The results of study showed that the fertilizer level 120:60:60 kg NPK ha-1 was found beneficial in improving growth characters, yield attributes and yield as compared to 80:40:40 kg NPK ha-1 , 100:50:50 kg NPK ha-1 and 150:75:75 kg NPK ha-1 under late sown condition. Variety Lok-1 proved to be superior in growth characters, yield attributes and yield as compared to SKFPS-645 and NIAW-34 under late sown condition.
