This paper is devoted to study the compact objects whose pressure and density are related through polytropic equation-of-state (EoS) and MIT bag model (for quark stars) in the background of f(R,T) gravity. We solve the field equations together with the hydrostatic equilibrium equation numerically for the model f(R,T) = R + αR2 + λT and discuss physical properties of the resulting solution. It is observed that for both types of stars (polytropic and quark stars), the effects of model parameters α and λ remain the same. We also obtain that the energy conditions are satisfied and stellar configurations are stable for both EoS.
