Abstract: The present investigation were conducted for two rabi seasons during 2014-15 and 2015-16 at a fixed site of farmers field Village Kakravada, Tehsil Ganj Basoda district Vidisha of Vindhyan Plateau of Madhya Pradesh to evaluate the effect of different organic sources (FYM, vermi-compost and poultry manure) in combinations with variable levels of optimal NPK on yield attributing characters, yield and economics of wheat in soybean-wheat cropping system. The results of the experiment indicated that the value of different attributes associated with 75 per cent optimal NPK coupled with application of poultry manure @ 5 t per ha was maximum plant height (cm), number of tillers and effective tillers per meter row length, length of ear head (cm), number of grains per spike, test weight (g), harvest index (%) and yield followed by 100 per cent optimal NPK. As compared with no fertilizer, the enhancement in grain yield 46.8 per cent and straw yield were 37.5 per cent by best treatment. However the minimum such yield and yield attributes were recorded in control. Thus, the combined use of different organic sources played a significant role in increasing grain, straw yields and economics of wheat.
