A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2022-2023 at the instructional farm, AKS, University, Sherganj, Satna (M.P.) site is situated at the latitude of 230 58’ N and longitude of 80 0 81, East in kymore plateau of M.P. The experiment consisted of 12 treatments in randomized block design with 3 replications, the wheat varieties, Pusa Tejas resulted in significantly higher length of spike (10.41 cm), number of seeds (37.44/spike), test weight (39.0 g) and seed yield (16.93/plant). The second and third best varieties were JW-3288 and JW-3336, respectively. The GW-3336 variety recorded lowest spike length (9.36 cm), seeds (34.03/spike), test weight (36.70 g) and seed yield (14.58 g/plant). The varietal differences in yield-attributes may be due to similar variations in the growth parameters, responsible for increased photosynthates, DM production and their translocation. The wheat varieties, Pusa Tejas resulted in significantly higher length of spike (10.41 cm), number of seeds (37.44/spike), test weight (39.0 g) and seed yield (16.93/plant). The second and third best varieties were JW-3288 and JW-3336, respectively. The maximum net realization of Rs.61209/ha with 2.59 B: C ratio was noted under Pusa Tejas variety of wheat. This was followed by JW-3288 and then JW-3336 (Rs.57175 and Rs.53224/ha, respectively. This was in accordance with the productivity of varieties and their market sale values. In case of applied organics, vermicompost (5 t/ha) recorded maximum net income Rs.60391/ha with 2.33 B: C ratio.
