A study was conducted at the Department of Agronomy, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan during rabi season 2007-08 to check the effect of different organic matters along with recommended dose of synthetic fertilizers on the growth and yield components of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The results of this experiment revealed that all the yield contributing factors such as number of spikelets per spike (18.4), number of grains per spike (48.8), 1000-grain weight (43.83g) and grain yield (4.14 t per ha) were significantly increased in T3 [Humic acid 55% (dry basis) + K2O 8% (dry basis)] as compared to all other treatments because it increased the availability of nutrients by aerating the soil, increasing the water holding capacity of soil and lowering down pH of soil which provides the favorable conditions for the growth and ultimately good crop harvest was achieved. Hence the results of this experiment indicate that organic matter al ong with recommended dose of synthetic fertilizers could be helpful in increasing the stagnant grain yield of wheat in our country.
