Abstract: An experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2014-2016 at Research Farm of the Department of Agriculture, Mata Gujri College, Fatehgarh Sahib to study the Effect of integrated nutrient management on yield and quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under irrigated conditions. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with seven integrated nutrient management treatments viz. T1 - 50% RDF, T2 - 50% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1), T3 - 100% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1), T4 - 100% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1) + PSB, T5 - 75% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1) + PSB, T6- 75% RDF + PSB and T7- 50% RDF + PSB were applied. The treatments were replicated thrice. The maximum growth parameters viz., plant population in running meter, plant height (cm), numbers of tillers in running meter and dry matter accumulation (g per running row length) were recorded with the application of T4- 100% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1) + PSB which was at par with the application of T5- 75% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1) + PSB and T3- 100% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1)which was significantly superior over all treatments at all stages of observations. The improvement in yield attributes and yield of crop was recorded with the application of T4- 100% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1) + PSB which was at par with the application of T5- 75% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1) + PSB and T3- 100% RDF + Vermicompost (2 t ha-1).
