Paper Summary

The study looked at how different wheat varieties respond to different levels of nitrogen fertilizer. They found that Misr-1 had the highest yield and nitrogen use efficiency, while Sid-12 had the heaviest grains. Increasing nitrogen fertilizer up to 90 kg per feddan increased yield but decreased nitrogen use efficiency. Misr-1 and Gemmiza-11 were the most efficient wheat varieties in both growing seasons.
