Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during rabi season 2011-2012 at Student Instructional Farm (SIF), C.S.A.U.A&T Kanpur. Eight treatments were tested in three replicated Randomized Block Design. Result found that significantly better growth attributes, yield attributes and grain yield (22.75 q/ha) was obtained with combined application of RDF + vermicompost @ 5.0 t/ha over rest of the treatments. The minimum grain yield (19.15 q/ha) was received in treatment RDF(120:60:40:30 Kg/ha NPKS). The application of RDF + vermicompost @ 5.0 t/ha was also found significantly higher gross income (Rs 81575) and net profit (Rs 35725) over rest of the treatments. While Benefit:Cost ratio was significantly higher (1.96) with application of RDF(120:60:40:30 Kg/ha NPKS) over rest of the treatments except at par with RDF + vermicompost @ 2.0 t/ha. The minimum gross income (Rs 69419/ha) was received in treatment RDF(120:60:40:30 Kg/ha NPKS) while the minimum net income and B:C ratio was found in treatment RDF + FYM @ 6.0 t/ha.
