A field experiment was conducted during 2005-2006 to study the response of durum wheat to nitrogen and irrigation levels on growth and yield of durum wheat. The findings of the study indicated that using NIDW 15 was found to be beneficial in increasing growth and yield of wheat. Application of 120 kg N ha^-1 and irrigation at CRI+tillering+flowering+grain development was observed to be beneficial in increasing growth and yield of wheat.
