Description Among the food grain crops of the world, wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) is pre-eminent both in regards to its antiquity and its importance as a food of mankind. Globally, it occupies the top most position among the cereal crops with respect to area (217.85 million hectares) and production (619.03 million tones) worldwide (Anonymous, 2005a). India ranks first in the wheat acreage (27.30 million hectares) and second in the production (72.06 million tones) in the world (Anonymous, 2005b). In Himachal Pradesh, wheat occupies the largest area (370.6 thousand hectares) among the cereals, with a total production of 583.3 thousand tones (Anonymous, 2002), but, has low productivity (15-16 q/ha) as compared to the national average of 26.4q/ha. The major reason of low productivity of wheat in hill states may be;eattributed to its cultivation under diverse and rainfed conditions.
