Abstract: An experiment was carried out in split plot design (SPD) during 2021-22 at Agronomy Research Farm, CCS HAU, Hisar, Haryana with the goal of studying the impact of different varieties and nitrogen sources on productivity, agro-physiological, and water use efficiencies of FIRB planted wheat under alternate furrow irrigation method.The experiment had four varieties viz., WH 1105, HD 3086, HD 2967, and WH 1184in the main plots and four nitrogen sources (organic and inorganic)viz.; control, 100% RDN through urea, 50% RDN through urea + 50% RDN through vermicompost,and 50% RDN through urea + 25% RDNthrough vermicompost + 25% RDN through farm yard manure in subplots. Among wheat varieties, HD 3086 performed better, and registered higher productivity and water use efficiency (WUE),whereas, varietal genotype had no significant effect on agro-physiological efficiency.
