Abstract:
Front Line Demonstration is one of the most powerful tool for transfer of technology. The present study was undertaken to find out the yield gap through FLDs on wheat crop. Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Basuli, Mahrajganj conducted 75 demonstrations with a total area of 30.0 ha. On wheat during 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18 in different five adopted villages. Prevailing farmer’s practices were treated as control for comparison to recommended practices. The average three years data observed that an average yield of demonstrated plot was obtained 54.73 q / ha. Over control (44.38 q / ha.) with an additional yield of 10.35 q/ha having an increase of 23.29 percent. The average Extension gap was 10.35 q / ha. Technology gap was 15.26 q / ha. While technology index was found 21.81 percent.
