| Abstract: | Chickpea (Cicer
arietinum Linn.) is most
important pulse crop in Madhya Pradesh. Front line demonstration were conducted
during the post rainy season at 48 farmers fields, to demonstrate production
potential and economic benefit of improved technologies consisting suitable
varieties (cvs ‘JG -322’, ‘JG-11’), integrated nutrient management (20:60:20:30
NPKS kg/ha + Rhizobium + PSB @ 20
g/kg seed), integrated pest management (deep ploughing + seed treatment with Tricoderma viride @ 5 g/kg seed +
Fermone trap @ 10/ha + Bird perchers @ 50/ha + quanal- phos @ 1.2 l with 600 l
of water) at Tikamgarh district of Bundelkhand Agro-climate zone during Rabi season 2004-05 to 2008-09. The
improved technologies recorded mean yield of 19.65 q/ha which was 71.88 per
cent higher than that obtained with farmers practices of 11.44 q/ha. Improved
technologies gave higher mean net return of 24611/ha with a
benefit cost ratio 2.99 as compared to local practice 11820/ha, benefit
cost ratio 2.58). |
