Wheat is a predominant crop of India and required a costly preparatory tillage practice with 8-10 ploughing. Wheat crop can be grown by using zero tillage technology without preparatory tillage. Through using this technology we can minimize the cost of cultivation without decreasing the production and productivity same time sowing date became 25-30 days early which is primary requirement of getting the maximum potential yield of wheat, resulting net return increased 4000- 5000 Rs./Hectare by minimizing the cost of cultivation in same ratio. As per finding of the study farmers are having favourable attitude toward this technology and they are still using with rapidly adoption. Present study was conducted in Baghpat, Saharanpur, Meerut and Muzaffarnagar district or Western Uttar Pradesh. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
