  • Cold weather in plains, including Shahjahanpur, impacts wheat germination after early potato harvest.
  • Expert Dr. N.P. Gupta advises increasing wheat seed quantity by 25% for January sowing due to low temperatures.
  • More seeds compensate for poor germination in cold, ensuring sufficient plant count and preventing yield loss.
  • Reduce chemical fertilizers (DAP/NPK) by 25% as late-sown crops absorb less, preventing wastage.
  • This 25% formula balances seed cost with fertilizer savings, ensuring profitability and efficient farm management.

Why It Matters: Farmers can ensure strong wheat yields in January by increasing seeds and reducing fertilizer by 25%.
