Yield (kg /ha)
West Bengal is not a major wheat producing state in
India
Its contribution to national wheat production is
negligible, and
to state’s food production is also not very significant
Which requires attention from the planners and
policy makers to increase the area and production of
wheat for food and nutritional security of the state
and the country as well.
The major constraints limiting the yield of wheat are:
Late sowing because of excessive soil moisture after rice
harvest
Shorter wheat growing season because of short span of
winter leading to incidence of high temperature during
flowering and grain maturity
Low mechanization
Imbalanced nutrient use
Poor land leveling
Rain and storm during maturity,
Severe pest s(white ants, rats and birds) and diseases
(especially foliar blight) infestation
Major irrigated areas of the state are occupied by
vegetables, potato, rice and high value crops

In West Bengal, the major wheat growing districts
are: Murshidabad, Nadia, Malda, Uttar (North)
Dinajpur, Jalpaiguri, Coochbehar and Birbhum.
These districts contribute about 87%
production from 88% wheat area in the
State
The non-traditional wheat growing districts of
the state can be covered under wheat crop are:
Wheat area in Bankura, 24-Parganas (North),
Burdwan, Dakshin (South) Dinajpur and
Midnapur (West) districts of the state can be
increased under wheat crop.

What can be done for introduction of wheat crop
in the non-traditional areas of the state?
1. Increasing awareness among the farmers regarding
cultivation of grain crops in general and wheat in particular
because of less requirement of irrigation water as compared
to boro rice
2. Availability of high yielding wheat varieties to be ensured for
timely, late and rainfed cultivation
3. Adoption of conservation agriculture can be helpful in
addressing the delayed sowing of wheat
4. Implements of conservation agriculture should be made
available
5. Salinity tolerant wheat cultivars should be introduced in the
saline zone
Policy matters
 Introduction of high yielding varieties with replacement of low
potential and pest and disease susceptible varieties.
 Increase of area under wheat with the reduction in
boro(summer) rice area in the state
 Encouragement for timely sowing for proper growth and
increase productivity
 Balanced use of plant nutrients along with the use of micronutrients as per soil test reports. Addition of organic matter to soil
through green manuring and crop residue recycling, balanced
fertilization, integrated nutrient management,
diversification/intensification of rice-wheat system by including
pulse crops are some of the possible remedial measures to improve
soil productivity and hence, total factor productivity.
Contd…..
Organizing large scale on farm trials and
demonstrations on newly released varieties and RCTs to
generate acquaintance and confidence amongst the
farmers.
Organizing farmers training programmes to educate
the farmers regarding newly released varieties and up to
date knowledge of POPs
Production of quality seeds in university and state
farms
Creation of infrastructural facilities for storage of
quality seeds
Developing market facilities for disposal of wheat at a
remunerative price.
SEED PRODUCTION PROGRAMME
 The centre used to multiply (8-10 q) seeds of some
important varieties of the region every year (e.g. PBW 343, HD
2733, K 0307) and hand over the seeds (as TL Seed) to the
Directorate of Farms of the University to supply it to the
wheat growers through KVKs.
 Currently Mega Seed project of the university has taken up
wheat seed production programme
 In West Bengal wheat seed produced 92.74 and 89.20 t in
2007-08 and 2008-09, respectively

The extent of reduction in grain yield was 13.33 and 27.33
kg/ha/day for a delay of 15 and 30 days from 18th November
sown crop
KRL 19, KRL 210, KRL 213 were found to be best salt
tolerant high yielding wheat cultivars at Sundarbans
 Closer spacing (17.5-20.0 cm) was found be better than
previously followed 22.5 cm spacing in respect of grain yield
 It was observed that 128 mm of water can be saved if wheat
crop is irrigated with 2cm at 22 DAS, 4cm at 66 DAS and 4cm at
80 DAS as compared to irrigation at all stages (22, 46, 66 and 80
DAS) at 5 cm depth of water without sacrificing yield

Future thrust for XII Plan
 Development of short duration-cum-late heat tolerant
wheat varieties to increase the area and production of
wheat
 Development of high yielding wheat varieties under
rainfed/saline condition.
Quality improvement of wheat grain through breeding,
agronomic manipulations and biofortification
Screening of the wheat germplasms against biotic and
abiotic stresses
Future thrust for XII Plan- contd.
Develop integrated nutrient, weed and pest
management practices for maximization of wheat yield
under different agro-climatic situations of the state
Research is needed in improving the nutrient and water
use efficiency of irrigated wheat
Fine tuning of RCTs for sustainability and higher
productivity of rice-wheat and wheat-based cropping
systems under different agro-climatic regions of West
Bengal.
Development of leaf blight forewarning model for
formulation of proper IPM strategy.
Increase in area under wheat should be the main thrust
