Table 6 Effect of nitrogen, residue and weed management practices on grain yield, energy-on-energy output of wheat (Average of 2018–2019 & 2019–2020).
Treatment | Grain yield (kg ha−1) | Grain yield energy output (MJ ha−1) | Straw yield (kg ha−1) | Straw yield energy output (MJ ha−1) | Total energy output (MJ ha−1) | Percentage total output increase over control |
