ABSTRACT
The results indicated that organic farming increased the quality and quantity of wheat variety (HP1744). Organic treatment significantly enhanced the protein content, gluten content, sugar content and mineral content. Out of five, treatment T2 i.e. in situ decomposition of rice straw + FYM@ 10 t per ha. + PSM + Azospirillum was found most significant. Above all the traits are significantly increased in various organic farming treatments due to more available N, P, K, Zn etc. and organic substance.
Key words :
