Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2013-14 at N. D. University of Agriculture & Technology, Kumarganj, Faizabad to study the effect of integrated nutrient management on the performance of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) variety HUW-234 which maturity period was 120-125 days. Treatments consist of 12 levels of fertility were evaluated in a randomized block design. Under the investigation, significantly highest number of tiller m-2, leaf area index, length of spike (cm), grain spike-1, grain yield and straw yield (kg ha-1)were found under incorporation of 125% recommended dose of fertilizer + 25% N through vermicompost (T12), however, highest harvest index (%) was recorded under application of 100% RDF + 25% through FYM (T7), while highest net return (Rs.ha-1)and benefit: cost ratio was observed under 100% RDF + 25% through vermicompost (T9).
