Effect of Conservation Agriculture-based Technology on Yield and Economics of Paddy
Journal Title: International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences (IJCMAS) - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
Farmers’ participatory front line demonstrations on method of sowing paddy with D.S.R. machine and traditional method of transplanting as local check were conducted at ten location during kharif (2014 and 2015) under CCS, HAU, Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Fatehabad, Haryana. The study reveals that on an average 52.07 q/ha yield of paddy (var. PUSA-1121) was recorded in demonstration plot as compare to 51.64 q/ha in local check which was 0.9 per cent higher over that of the local check. The data on economic parameters reveals that a net return of Rs.55033 per ha was in demonstration compare to Rs.47123 per ha in local check. The benefit-cost (B:C) ratio was 1:1.68 and 1:1.53 in demonstration and local check, respectively. Further, decreased cost of Rs. 6750 per ha in D.S.R. technology has increased additional net returns Rs. 7910 per ha, suggesting its higher profitability and economic viability of the technology demonstrated.
