The study was under taken in seepage water affected area from 2005-06 to 2015-16 at village Bhanwat, Mainpuri. The main objective was to increase the farm families income more than two fold. The secondary objective was to raised the wheat crop under organic farming after green manuring of water chestnut green biomass and increase the fertility status of soil. Three cropping systems i.e., water chestnut-wheat K-7903, water chestnut-wheat K 9423 and water chestnut-wheat PBW- 373 were tested. The Kanpuri cultivar of water chestnut was used in the study. The average nut yield of water chestnut was recorded 80.00 q/ha, while average wheat yield noted by 35.00 q/ha after plucking of water chestnut. The system productivity was computed by 107.72 q/ha. The net return and BCR were obtained by Rs. 45000/ha and 1:1.60, respectively, from water chestnut. Similarly, late sown wheat gave net return and BCR by Rs. 18250/ha and 1:1.46, respectively. Water chestnut inclusion in water chestnut-late sown wheat cropping system increased the farm families income > 3 fold.
