You can also use gestures,

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];

    UITapGestureRecognizer *gestureRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(hideKeyboard)];
    gestureRecognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
    [self.view addGestureRecognizer:gestureRecognizer];
}

- (void)hideKeyboard {
    [self.view endEditing:YES];
}

-(BOOL)textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
[self.view endEditing:YES]; // this statement will hide keyboard. Useful when we use many textfields based on tag value. 
return YES;
}

Disable the editing for the particular field

-(BOOL)textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField{

    if ([textField isEqual:myTextField]) {
        return NO;
    }
    return YES;
}

Assign a IBOutlet property to that particular UITextField and then in viewDidLoad add the following code [self.YourUITextField setUserInteractionEnabled:NO];

Not sure, what exactly you are expecting. I hope that you need to handle the UITextField delegates but without UIKeyboard : If so, then implement delegate of 

-(void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)sender{  
// resign the textfield and do your stuff with the data 
}

Set the userInteractionEnabled property:

//UITextField *text;
text.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
