A field experiment was conducted during winter (rabi) season of 2002–03 and 2003–04 at R.B.S. College, Agra, Uttar Pradesh to study the effect of nitrogen, phosphorus and zinc on wheat (Triticum aestivum L. emend. Fiori & Paol.). Pooled analysis revealed that the growth parameters, yield attributes, yield, net return and benefit: cost ratio increased significantly with the application of 150 kg N, 50 kg P2O5 and 5 kg Zn ha−1. In general, nutrient uptake increased up to highest level of N, P and Zn.
