Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the world’s most widely cultivated food crop providing ample food calories and protein for more than one thousand million human beings in the world. Common wheat is grown across a wide range of environment around the worlds. Among major cereals, globally wheat ranks first in area and production. Wheat contributes 25 per cent production to the total food grain production. In Maharashtra area under wheat is 12.53 million hectares and production is 23.71 million tonnes (Anonymous, 2009). In wheat, time of sowing is one of the important aspects for obtaining good yield. It has marked influence on the yield of wheat (Mishra et al., 2003). In fact, the optimum time of sowing depends on the type of variety (duration), weather conditions, land preparation and availability of inputs. The growth and yield of late sown wheat is less as compared to timely sown irrigated wheat. Sowing of wheat is delayed generally due to late harvest of some Kharif crops and resulted in poor yield. The delayed sowing also affect the efficiency of inputs such as fertilizer and water. However, the adoption of improved agronomic practices, suitable varieties and fertilizer dose can increase crop productivity. Growing suitable late sown varieties with proper dose of fertilizer increase growth and yield of crop.
