Abstract: The experiment was conducted to know the effect of Fly ash, Phospho-gypsum and chemical fertilizers on Growth parameters, Yield attributes, Yield and Nutrient Uptake of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in Inceptisol of Varanasi district (U.P.) during the year 2014-15 and 2015-16 at the Agriculture Research Farm, Institute of Agriculture Science, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi (India). The influence of fly ash (FA) and Phosphogypsum (PG) with fertilizers applied in soil that improved the yield and nutrient uptake of wheat. The results showed that 15 t FA ha^-1 and 2 t PG ha^-1 with 75% Recommended dose of fertilizers significantly increased grain yield and yield attributes viz; Number of tillers m^-1, Plant height, and Chlorophyll content of wheat. The maximum N, P, K, Ca, Mg and S uptake in seed and straw of wheat were observed significantly superior with application of treatment i.e. 75% RDF + 15 t FA ha^-1 + 2 t PG ha^-1.
