Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 53
Abstract
Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Sehore (M.P.) during the period from 2011-12 to 2014-15 conducted a total 52 frontline demonstration of Chickpea crop. Cultivation practices comprised under FLD viz. use of improve variety (JG -322, JG-16), seed treatment, seed inoculation, spacing 30cm, soil test based nutrient management, irrigation water management and integrated pest management show that percentage increase in the yield of Chick pea ranged from 15.55 % to 27.85 % over farmer’s practice. The highest seed yield 19.25 q ha-1 was recorded in the year 2014-15 in FLD, which was 15.55% more over the farmer’s practice (16.66 q ha-1). The additional cost Rs. 1158 to Rs. 3000 gave additional net return, it was ranged from Rs. 4334 to Rs. 8120 per hectare .The increased benefit: Cost ratio was also calculated, it was ranged from 1:2.18 to 1:2.77 in demonstration &1:2.04 to 1:2.57 in farmers practice.
