• Agricultural expert Dr. Akhilesh Shah emphasizes scientific methods for increased wheat yield, especially in the first 25 days after sowing.
• Weeds are a major threat, reducing wheat yield by 30-40% by competing for resources.
• Pre-emergence herbicide, applied immediately after sowing, prevents weed germination and gives wheat an early advantage.
• Timely irrigation is vital: first irrigation at 21 days, followed by 45, 65, 90, and 120 days.
• Adopting scientific practices like weed control, proper herbicide use, and timely irrigation can significantly increase farmer income.

Why It Matters: Adopting scientific methods, especially pre-emergence herbicide and timely irrigation, is crucial for maximizing wheat yield and farmer income.
