Abstract: The experiment was conducted during rabi season 2015-16 and 2016-17. The present investigation entitled “Effect of Tillage Practices and Moisture Regimes on the Performance of Wheat†was conducted at Agronomy Research Farm, of Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Narendra Nagar (Kumarganj) Faizabad (U.P.). The experiment was laid out in split plot design having four tillage practices (zero tillage, reduced tillage + sowing by seed cum ferti drill, conventional tillage + sowing on beds and conventional tillage+ sowing by seed cum ferti drill) as main plot treatments and five moisture regimes (irrigation at 0.8 IW/CPE, irrigation at 1.0 IW/CPE and irrigation at 1.2 IW/CPE irrigation at 3 Irrigation each at CRI, Late jointing and Milking stage and 5 Irrigation each at CRI, Tillering, Late jointing, Flowering and Milking stage) as sub plot treatments. 20 treatment combinations were replicated three times. The result revealed that the yield and yield attributes were recorded significantly higher in conventional tillage + sowing on bed, which was at par with conventional tillage+ sowing by seed cum ferti drill during both the years due to performance of tillage practices. However, the yield and yield attributes were significantly higher under irrigation at 1.0 IW/CPE being at par with 1.2 IW/CPE ratio and 5 Irrigation each at CRI, tillering, late jointing, flowering and milking stage over rest of the treatments causes optimum availability of moisture at critical stage of the crop growth. The maximum net income (Rs. 82428 ha-1) and benefit cost ratio (2.49) were calculated under conventional tillage + sowing on beds along with irrigation at 1.0 IW/CPE ratio.
