In order to study the response of nitrogen and dates of sowing on growth, yield and quality of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), a field experiment was conducted at the Research plot, Department of Agronomy, AKS University, Satna, (MP) during Rabi season of 2022-2023. Twelve treatment combinations were drawn from four levels of nitrogen, i.e., Control (N0), 45 kg N/ha (N1), 60 kg N/ha (N2) and 75 kg N/ha (N3) and three dates of sowing, i.e., 3rd week of November (D1), 4th week of November (D2) and 1st week of December (D3). The treatment combinations were arranged in Factorial RCBD and replicated thrice. Results revealed that amongst the nitrogen levels, application of 75 kg N/ha produced maximum plant height at 90 DAS (80.48 cm), number of leaves/plant at 90 DAS (10.58), average fresh weight/plant (39.02), length of spike (8.37 cm), number of seeds/spike (39.60), test weight (42.73 g), seed yield (41.56 q ha-1), straw yield (50.32 q ha-1), harvest index (45.19 %), protein content (11.11 %). Different dates of sowing also responded significantly to the above-mentioned parameters. among different dates of sowing, maximum plant height at 90 DAS (72.24 cm), number of leaves/plant at 90 DAS (10.12), average fresh weight (35.42 g), length of spike (7.68 cm), number of seeds/spike (38.83), test weight (40.41 g), seed yield (35.27 q ha-1), straw yield (45.57 q ha-1), harvest index (43.36 %), protein content (9.78 %) was obtained with the sowing date of 3rd week of November
