Nutrient management in sodic condition is much more important for economical production of wheat. A field experiment on salt affected soil was performed to evaluate the response of wheat (cv. Sehar) to soil boron (B) application. Boron was applied at 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 kg ha-1 . There was antagonistic influence of B application on various plant growth parameters of wheat under salt affected conditions and minimum yields were observed at 2 kg ha-1 . The pre-sowing soil analysis indicated that soil had optimum B level for growth of wheat crop. Addition of B increased phyto-available B concentration in soil as confirmed in post-harvest soil analysis. With the incremental of B, plant accumulated greater B concentrations. However, B concentration in plant tissues was not upto toxic limits generally accepted for wheat crop. Therefore, B mediated reduced the plant growth and grain yield under salt conditions might be related to interactions among N, P and K. Based on findings, it is concluded that B application is not required for sodic soils
