Abstract
This research delves into the effects of varying concentrations of moringa leaf extract on wheat growth within a 6 Marla area, employing a randomized complete block design. The primary goal is to determine the most effective moringa concentration for optimizing wheat yield. The study involves six treatments T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 and T5 with concentrations ranging from 0% to 60%, each applied to 1 Marla plots and replicated to ensure reliability. Key parameters including plant population, height, tiller count, grain count per spike, 1000-grain weight, and grain yield were examined. Recommended rates of 50 kg/acre for seed and NPK fertilizer were followed, aligning with irrigated wheat fields in Pakistan. The research aims to establish a connection between moringa extract application and wheat performance. Statistical analyses encompassed ANOVA and post hoc tests to discern significant differences among treatments. The results revealed minor fluctuations in plant population (94.667 to 97.333 plants/m²), plant height (100.33 to 103.33 cm), and tiller count (256.33 to 268.33 tillers/m²), with no statistically significant distinctions. Grain count per spike remained stable, while 1000-grain weight exhibited slight variation (34.667 to 35.667 g). Grain yield ranged from 14.2 to 15.3 kg/Marla. Overall, the study demonstrates that the application of different moringa extract concentrations did not exert substantial influence on the measured wheat growth and yield parameters.
