The rice (Oryza sativa) covers largest area in total grain production in Narmada district of Gujarat. One of the major constraints of low productivity of rice is lack of technical know how of newly generated technology among farmers. The present study named dissemination of improved production technologies of rice in Narmada district of Gujarat through front line demonstrations (FLD) and its impact assessment. A total of 101 front line demonstrations were conducted during 2008-09 to 2011-12 on area of 35.0 ha with the active participation of farmers with the objective to demonstrate the latest technology of rice production. The percentage increase in the yield over local check was 21.6 with higher gross return of 17212 Rs./ha, net return of 9567 Rs./ha and benefit cost ratio 2.7 as compared to local check (14034 Rs./ha, 7331 Rs./haand benefit cost ratio 2.5, respectively. By conduction of front line demonstrations on farmer's field there was significant increase in knowledge level of the farmers and majority of farmer's showed high level of satisfaction about demonstrated technologies.Keywords

A field experiment was conducted during summer 2010 at Instructional farm, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh (Gujarat) on clayey soil to study the effect of phosphorus and bio-fertilizers on growth, yield and economics of green gram. Twelve treatments comprising all possible combinations of four levels of phosphorus viz., 0, 20, 40 and 60 and three levels of bio-fertilizers viz., control, with liquid PSB (Phosphate solubilizing bacteria) inoculation and with liquid Rhizobium inoculation were tried in factorial Randomized Block Design with three replications. The result of the experiment indicated that application of 60 kg P2O5 /ha and seeds inoculated with Rhizobium significantly increased the growth parameters viz., plant height, branches per plant, dry weight of nodules, leaf area index and dry matter accumulation as well as yield attributes like number of pods per plant, grain yield per plant, stover yield and test weight. The significantly highest seed (1140 kg/ha) and stover (5890 kg/ha) yields recorded by application of 60 kg P2O5 /ha which was at par with 40 kg P2O5 /ha level. The highest seed yield (1100 kg/ha) was recorded by application of Rhizobium inoculation over liquid PSB inoculation and control.Keywords

One of the major constraints of low productivity of rice is lack of technical knowhow of newly generated technology among farmers. The present study named dissemination of improved production technologies of rice in Narmada district of Gujarat through front line demonstrations (FLD) and its impact assessment. A total of 34 front line demonstrations were conducted during 2012 to 2013 on area of 7.8 ha with the active participation of farmers with the objective to demonstrate the latest technology of rice production. The percentage increase in the yield over local check was 20.5 with higher gross return of 15528 Rs./ha, net return of 5652 Rs./ha and benefit cost ratio 1.6 as compared to local check (12882 Rs./ha, 3851 Rs./ha and benefit cost ratio 1.4, respectively). By conduction of frontline demonstrations on farmer's field there was significant increase in knowledge level of the farmers and majority of farmer's showed high level of satisfaction about demonstrated technologies.Keywords

The rice (Oryza sativa) covers largest area in total grain production in Narmada district of Gujarat. One of the major constraints of low productivity of rice is lack of newly generated technology among farmers. A total of 54 front line demonstrations were conducted during 2012 to 2013 on area of 9.0 ha with the active participation of farmers with the objective to demonstrate the latest variety technology of rice production. The percentage increase in the yield over local check was 20.4 with higher gross return of 41805 Rs./ha, net return of 29359 Rs./ha and benefit cost ratio 3.4 as compared to local check (34752 Rs./ha, 22755 Rs./ha and benefit cost ratio 2.9, respectively).Keywords

The study was carried out during Kharif season of 2012 and 2013 in ten villages of Narmada district. In all 27 demonstrations on soybean crop were carried out in area of 10 ha with the active participation of farmers with the objective to demonstrate the latest technology of soybean production with suitable variety 'JS-335'. The results revealed that FLD recorded higher yield as compared to farmers practice over the years of study. The improved technology recorded average yield of 1666 kg/ha which was 17.8 per cent higher than that obtained with farmers practice of 1415 kg/ha. In spite of increase in yield of soybean, technological gap, extension gap and technology index existed which was 134, 251 kg/ha and 7.4 per cent, respectively. The improved technology gave higher gross return of 51614 Rs./ha, net return of 39386 Rs./ha with benefit cost ratio 4.2 as compared to local check (43846 Rs./ha, 31618 Rs./ha and benefit cost ratio 3.6, respectively).Keywords

The study was carried out during Kharif season of 2011, 2012 and 2013 in seven villages of Narmada district. In all 32 demonstrations on maize crop were carried out in area of 11.6 ha with the active participation of farmers with the objective to demonstrate the latest technology of maize production potential. The improved technology consisting of suitable variety 'Gujarat Maize 6'. The results revealed that FLD recorded higher yield as compared to farmers practice over the years of study. The improved variety recorded average yield of 1409 kg/ha which was 18.5 per cent higher than that obtained with farmers practice of 1189 kg/ ha. In spite of increase in yield of maize, technological gap, extension gap and technology index existed which was 1034, 219 kg/ha and 42.3 per cent, respectively. The improved variety gave higher gross return of 15030 Rs./ha, net return of 4031 Rs./ha with benefit cost ratio 1.4 as compared to local check (12688 Rs./ha, 2289 Rs./ha and benefit cost ratio 1.2).Keywords
