Which of the following is the most important critical stage for irrigation in wheat crop?
Answer: A
The most critical stage is Crown Root Initiation (CRI).
About 20 to 25 days after sowing, wheat forms its crown roots, which anchor the plant and absorb most of its water and nutrients. Missing irrigation at this stage cuts tillering and yield more than at any other stage, so the first irrigation is always timed for CRI.
Tillering, flowering and milk stages also need water, but agronomists rank CRI as the single most critical.
