Randomized Complete Block Design （RCBD） with three replications was used having treatments： control （broadcast）, zero till wheat plantation, wheat plantation using happy seeder and wheat plantation on raised beds. It was observed that tillering was pretty higher （141 and 139 m2） under raised bed as well as happy seeder plantation as compared to zero tilled wheat and broadcast technique. A significant relation was detected among maximum straw and grain yield （4,898 and 1,752 kg-ha1） in raised bed followed by happy seeder planting method. The lowest grain yield was recorded in the broadcast method. Maximum net revenue earned by raised bed planting method （39,908 PKR） followed by happy seeder methodology （37,533 PKR）. The overall study suggests that raised bed and happy seeder wheat plantation are the superior planting methods.展开更多
