Abstract
To determine the response of wheat, UPL-W1 to organic and inorganic fertilization at three levels of application (2,4, BT/ha. for organic; 30-30-30, 60-30- 30, 90-30-30 for the inorganic), a pot experiment was conducted at the Central Experiment Station, U. P. at Los Baños, College, Laguna. Plant height, tiller count, and grain yield showed significant responses to fertilizer application and rates. Tiller productivity per plant was observed to be highly correlated with grain yield per pot. The other yield parameters were not significantly affected by the fertilizers. The magnitude of responses exhibited by the different characters to the three rates of fertilizer application varied significantly. Grain yield proved to be highly sensitive to rates of organic fertilizer application.
