Abstract:
The cluster frontline demonstration (CFLDs) on Groundnut was conducted by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Pipalia in three cluster covering 7 villages namely Talagana, Mekhatimbi, Dhank, Iswariya, Vadodar, Patanvav, and Mandlikpur during the Kharif season of 2017-18. The results revealed that from average of all cluster, the demonstrated treatments (Improved seed of Groundnut GJG-22 @ 100 kg/ha + Seed treatment of Biofertilizers i.e. Rhizobium & PSB @ 10 ml/kg seed + Soil application of Trichoderma @ 5 kg/ha + Spraying of Beauveria @ 60 gm/15 lit of water) recorded average highest yield 14.81% as compare to farmers plot. Were, in case of gross and net returns, which was Rs. 123560/- and Rs. 66911/-ha in demonstrated plot and Rs. 112218/- and Rs. 53955/-ha in farmers practices, respectively. Cost benefit ratio for demonstration and farmer practices was 2.18 and 1.92, respectively. It can be concluded that the Groundnut production could be enhanced by encouraging the farmers through adoption of recommended technologies which were followed in the CFLDs.
