Observations –Different varieties of wheat have been grown by SWI methods. These methods have given a very good response in different soil and climatic conditions & with different seeds. • Best results were found in Sanna village with HW-2000 variety. Four irrigations were given by farmers. Plant health was very good with 35 tillers on a single plant. • In Kopra, farmers did not give much water; just one irrigation was provided with organic manure applied the field. Plant health was very good in comparison with other plants in the area; 5-6 tillers were seen in SWI plants. • In Sidhi village, the same number of irrigations was given & 6-8 tillers were seen with Sujata variety.
