For impact study and to increase the productivity of moth bean, a high yielding variety RMO-40 was evaluated at farmer's field in adopted villages namely Chandan, Delasar, Dhaisar, Bhairwa and Javandh of Jaisalmer block. After conducting trainings 64 demonstrations were conducted at farmer's field. Demonstration plots gave significantly average higher yield (3.87q/ha) over farmer practices (2.49q/ha) and over all per cent increase in yield was 55.42 with B:C 3.33. Area of moth bean was 84.00 was found at Javandh followed by Delasar (83.74), Bhairwa (80.77), Dhaisar (75.00) and Chandan (73.03).

Abstract


For impact study and to increase the productivity of moth bean, a high yielding variety RMO-40 was evaluated at farmer's field in adopted villages namely Chandan, Delasar, Dhaisar, Bhairwa and Javandh of Jaisalmer block. After conducting trainings 64 demonstrations were conducted at farmer's field. Demonstration plots gave significantly average higher yield (3.87q/ha) over farmer practices (2.49q/ha) and over all per cent increase in yield was 55.42 with B:C 3.33. Area of moth bean was 84.00 was found at Javandh followed by Delasar (83.74), Bhairwa (80.77), Dhaisar (75.00) and Chandan (73.03).
