Enhancing the production potential and socio-economic level of farmers, 138 front line demonstrations on chickpea were laid out during the year 2015-16 and 2016-17. Area under the demonstration was 50.56 hectare comprising 138 farmer’s of six villages Ramukhedi, Setkhedi, Khudel, Baroda Doulat, Gariya and Akya of district Indore in Madhya Pradesh. Under the technology dissemination programme recommended intervention i.e. suitable variety, integrated nutrient management, integrated pest management were attempted. Recommended practice recorded mean yield of 14.40 q/ha, which was 30.11 per cent higher over the farmers practices (11.06 q/ha). Additional cost under the intervention of Rs. 2740 to 1919 gave additional net return of Rs. 10,917 to Rs. 15,046 per hectare. Higher side benefit: cost ratio (2.4-2.51) was recorded during both the year of study. The extension gap was observed between 3.01 to 3.6 q/ha. The favourable cost benefit ratio exhibited the feasibility of technology demonstrated.Keywords

Marigold has earned tremendous popularity as floral crop in Madhya Pradesh particularly at Indore district where it is being commercially cultivated as loose flower at around 2300 hectare in open field condition. With the objectives to address the problem of low yield with poor quality flower of marigold leading to lower economic returns, an assessment of integrated nutrient management with bio fertilizer application in marigold under open field condition was attempted during year 2015-16 and 2016-17 by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Kasturbagram consisting 10 innovative farmers with three treatment, including farmers practice T1 (NPK @ 60-90-32 kg/hac), recommended practice T2 (NPK 200 kg-100 kg-80+20 tonnes FYM/ha) and modified recommended practice T3 (NPK @ 150 kg-100 kg-80 kg + Azotobacter and PSB @ 5 kg/Hac+20 tonnes FYM/ha ). Out of three treatment, flower yield under the modified recommended practice (105.1 q/ha) was significantly higher than recommended practice (99.23 q/ha) followed by farmers practice (86.40 q/ha). Similarly gross income (Rs. 157650.00), net return (Rs. 96156.00) and BC ratio (2.56) under modified recommended practice were also recorded significantly higher over recommended practice (T2) and farmers practice (T1). Flower diameter in terms of centimetre was recorded highest (3.39 cm) under refinement (T2) followed by recommended (T2) 3.06 cm and farmer’s practice (T1) 2.45 cm.Keywords
