The experiment was conducted to study the effect of varying degrees of shade on wheat crop. The results of the study indicated that plant height and number of tillers increased under full light conditions after 120 days of sowing as compared to 25 and 50% light treatments while it was not much different from 75% light treatment. The yield of grain and total dry weight of the harvest was significantly high under full light intensity than all other treatments. Similarly, NPK content of wheat grains were also higher under full fight condition. It is recommbnded that contemplation should be given to reduce the shade effect on field crops for getting good yield.
