For getting optimum yield in wheat, time of sowing is important. An experiment on promising wheat varieties was conducted on a clay loam soil for three years. The sowing of wheat during November 5th to 11th proved to be the optimum time for all the years. Among the varieties APAU 1577 and HD 4502 proved better than others under earlier sowing (October 22nd to 28th). Varieties DWR 39, APAU 1577, NI 8796 and NI 8841 gave more grain yield under normal sowing (November 5th to 11th). Under late sown conditions (December 3rd to 9th), varieties DWR 39, NI 8818 and HI 977 were beter than others
