Abstract: The field experiment was conducted during rabi sesone 2015-16 to generate the ground truth data of wheat crop. The experiment was conducted in Split Plot Design and replicated four times. The treatment comprised of three dates of sowing viz. 25th November (D1), 10th December (D2) and 25th December (D3) kept as a main plot with three varieties viz. PBW-343 (V1), PWB-502 (V2) and LOKE-1 (V3) kept as a subplot. The crop weather condition overestimated the plant height, total dry matter (g/m2), leaf area index, days taken to 50% flowering, days taken to maturity, RGR, CGR, number of effective tillers per spike, grain yield (kg ha-1), 1000 grains weight (g), number of grains spike-1, days taken to maturity, grain yield and harvest index of wheat crop grown in region. The lowest error percent was recorded in a timely sown crop of wheat (November 25th) with PBW-343 variety (D1V1) and error percent increased with delay in sowing. The crop growth in wheat crop depicted well the variation in yield due varying crop growth environment based on different dates of sowing. The grain yield events were close to observed values in a timely sown crop suggested that the yield was well within the accepted limits, therefore the predicting wheat yield events in the regions of Uttar Pradesh, where the experiment was conducted
