Abstract


Groundnut is one of the important kharif oil seed crop and The present study undertaken with 50 farmers of three size group (0-1 ha, 1-2 ha and 2 ha and above) from the universe of five villages of block Sandi in district ofHardoi on the basis of dominance of groundnut farming at sample holders. The average intensity of cropping 157.92 per cent was worked out for the study area. Cost of production of 2 ha and above highest Rs. 80010/ha followed by 1-2 ha. Rs. 71586.22/ha and 0-1 ha Rs. 62143.81/ha groundnut grower size group 2 ha and above highest net return Rs. 42840/ha followed by 1-2 ha Rs. 36213.78/ha, 0-1 ha Rs. 26006.19/ha achieved by groundnut grower direct supply into groundnut Mandy causes for these variation manures and fertilizers, irrigation facilities, intercultural practices and good farm management differences. The per hectare average input output 1:1.49 and highest input output ratio was 2 ha and above 1:1.53 followed by 1-2 ha 1:1.50 and 0-1 ha 1:1.42 and per farm net return 2 ha and above highest Rs.114382.80 followed by 1-2 ha Rs.52872.11 and 0-1 ha Rs. 15733.74, input output ratio was 1:1.42, 1:1.50 and 1:1.53, respectively which are so the increasing trend with the increasing size of holdings.
