Abstract
A field experiment was conducted at Agricultural Research Farm, KPK Agricultural University, Peshawar, Pakistan during winter 2005-2006. The treatments consisted of crop residue (stover & legume residue), two type of fertilizer-N (NH4-N & NO3-N) and their application time i.e. at sowing and 2nd node appearance stage. Higher spikes m-2 and grain yield were recorded for nitrate-N application in split at the rate of 100 kg ha-1 in combination with legume residue. Likewise, the highest grains spike-1 was recorded for legume and cereal residue application along with nitrate and ammonium N application at the rate of 100 kg ha-1, respectively. However
