Wheat is the third most produced cereal in world after maize and rice. Due to ever increasing human population decreased area under cultivation, there a pressure on limited land resource meet basic demands of increased towards food, fodder, pulses, oilseeds etc. The potential increase arable cropping severely without significant environmental implications; way solving problem sustainable intensification through re invigoration yield improvement by either genetic progress or optimization systems. Having this idea mind, it can be conclude that, intercropping systems have scope exceed yields impossible monocultures their component species hindering variety disease development such as rust. It provides returns from labour farmers, often increases efficiency with which scarce resources are used reduces failure risk single crop that susceptible economic fluctuations. Cropping system based carefully designed mixtures reveal many advantages interims enhancing productivity, reducing pest disease, ecological service. Therefore recommended wheat pulse desirable agronomic practice boosting prevention incidence
