Abstract: Cereal crop seed priming, particularly for rice and wheat, has been shown to be more effective in reducing the negative impacts of unfavorable weather conditions. In addition to improving crop establishment, pre-germinated seeds and seed priming boost yield, increase competitiveness against weeds, and eliminate the need for expensive resowing. In order to investigate the impact of the seed priming technique on wheat yield and yield-attributing characteristics, a field experiment was carried out at the Horticulture Research Station, Kimugaun, Dailekh, during the 2016-17 and 2017-18 growing seasons. In 2016-17, the treatment that used pure water for 8 hours for seed priming had significantly higher yield (5.4 t/ha) compared to seed priming with urea for 8 hours (4.9 t/ha). Similarly, seed priming with pure water for 8 hours resulted in a significantly higher weight for 1000 grain (57.3 g), followed by seed priming with urea for 16 hours (56.0 g). However, in 8-hour seed priming (with both pure water and urea) and 16-hour seed priming with urea, early heading at 105 days after sowing (DAS) was noted. After 16 hours of urea priming and 24 hours of pure water seed priming, a noticeably early heading within 106 DAS and 107 DAS was noted in 2017–18. However, the highest grain yield (5.7 t/ha) was seen after 8 hours of seed priming with pure water, and 5.6 t/ha after 16 hours of seed priming with pure water. The results of a two-year study showed that seed priming increased wheat yields when compared to dry seed sowing, and that priming with pure water for eight hours was more productive than either no priming, urea priming, or priming for a longer period of time. For its use on late-sown wheat, where it can promote early heading and lessen the impact of force maturity issues, more field testing is required.
