Abstract The field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2020-21 and 2021-22 at Agriculture research farm, Faculty of Agriculture, RNTU, Raisen, (M.P.). Aim of the study is to evaluate the performance of moisture conditions under varying fertility grades. Keeping 4 levels of irrigation (I0-CRI, late, Jointing, and milking stage, I1-CRI, late jointing, flowering and milking stage, I2-Irrigation with (0.8 IW/CPE) and I3-Irrigation with (1.0 IW/CPE) under main plots and four 4 nutrient practices (F0-100% RDF+ZnSO4 30 kg, F1-75% RDF +25% RDN through FYM+ZnSO4 25 kg/ha, F2-50% RDF+50% RDN through FYM +ZnSO4 20 kg/ha and F3-100 kg+25% RDN through FYM+ZnSO4 15 kg/ha in sub plot with thrice replications. The experiment was laid out in split plot design. Data revealed that the significant difference was observed with irrigation levels on grain yield (4170.58 and 4152.25 kg/ha) and straw yield (4678.05 and 4703.71 kg/ha) in wheat during 2020-21 and 2021-22, respectively. Application of 75% RDF +25% RDN through FYM+ZnSO4 25 kg/ha gave highest yield of wheat crop which was significantly superior over other treatments. The highest wheat grain yield of 3765.47 and 3902.80 kg/ha and straw yield of 4423.24 and 4531.04 kg/ha during 2020-21 and 2021-22 were recorded with 75% RDF +25% RDN through FYM+ZnSO4 25 kg/ha. Net returns were maximum (Rs. 88079.53) under the treatment I1 (CRI, late jointing, flowering and milking stage) followed by treatment I2 ((Irrigation with 0.8 IW/CPE). Minimum net returns (Rs. 72470.91) were recorded under the treatment I2 (Irrigation with (1.0IW/CPE). Among fertility grades, maximum net returns of Rs. 81758.12 were recorded under the treatment F1 (100% RDF+ZnSO4 30 kg).
