The study was under taken with 60 vegetable growers in Kalyanpur block of district Kanpur during 2007-08 on three major vegetables viz., tomato ,brinjal and chilli. The highest plant protection cost Rs. 1994 per hectare was measured for chilli constituting 6.3 per cent of total variable cost. The plant protection cost of tomato was Rs.1911.37 per hectare with a tune of 8.6 per cent variable cost, while lowest cost of plant protection was measured Rs. 1578/ha in case of brinjal constituted with 10.8 per cent of total variable cost. The pesticide use efficiency analysis for tomato revealed that one per cent increase in value of plant protection reduced the yield by 0.11 per cent reflected the over use of pesticide while production elasticity of labour (0.18 ) and fertilizer (0.14) indicating further scope of enhancing the labour and fertilizer for better yield of tomato crop. The pesticide use efficiency of brinjal indicating positive response and resulted 0.20 per cent increase in yield of brinjal by increasing one per cent more dose of the pesticide. The production elasticity of fertilizer (0.30) and labour (0.29) also resulted positive response and further scope in brinjal crop. The pesticide use efficiency for chilli crop (- .03) showed a negative response for plant protection and restrict the further use of plant protection chemicals. The production elasticity for labour (0.25) and fertilizer (0.43) indicated under use of nutrients and man power. Hence, there is still scope for increasing man power and fertilizers to improve the yield of chilli crop in the study area.Keywords

The study was carried out in Sadar block of district Pratapgarh in Uttar Pradesh with 30 aonla growers ( 8 marginal, 6 small and 16 big respondents) selected randomly with six villages of the selected block. The over all plantation cost of one hectare aonla was worked out of Rs.47000 .The cost of of gestation period was calculated as Rs.78876.60 for six years of gestation period. On an average cost of aonla production per hectare came to Rs.27386.02. The highest cost intake of 6-12 years orchard was worked out as Rs.33272.08/ha, while lowest cost was observed in 24 years and above aged orchard as Rs.23836.00/ha. The input-output analysis shows that aonla crop fetched on an average 5.45 times more return on investment of Rs. 1. Problems of insect-pest and diseases, lack of plant protection measures and lack of skilled human resource at peak season was observed as main constraints in the study area.Keywords

The present study was conducted in the Fatehpur district of Uttar Pradesh using multistage stratified random sampling design. A sample of 120 households was selected probability proportion to size of holdings. The households were classified into three category such as marginal (>1 hectare), small (1-2 hectare) and large (<2 hectare) the total cost of milk production per lactation was Rs. 22776 and Rs. 16694 for buffalo and cow, respectively. On an average, cost of buffalo 89.6 per cent incurred as variable cost while 10.4 per cent incurred ‘as fixed cost and cow was 90.4 per cent incurred as variable cost and 9.6 per cent incurred as fixed cost of total cost. Out of which concentrate cost alone accounted for 37.4 per cent and 42.6 per cent buffalo and cow, respectively. Labour charges were more (17 percent) in buffalo as compared to cow (16.2 per cent). The interest on animal value was more (6.7 per cent) in case of buffalo as compared to cow (5.1 per cent). The cost of milk production was much higher in case of buffalo than the cow. Similarly, milk production was also higher in buffalo than the cow. The per liter cost of milk production was Rs. 12.62 and Rs. 10.79 for buffalo and cow, respectively. The total return per animal per lactation came to Rs. 3141.14 and Rs. 24928.38 for buffaloes and cow, respectively. The net return in case of buffalo was higher (Rs. 9637.66 per lactation) as compared to cow (Rs. 8234.04 per lactation) while, benefit cost ratio was higher cow (1.49) than the buffalo (1.41). It was observed that on an average two third of the total milk production of households was sold in the market.Keywords

The study was carried out in Sadar block of district Pratapgarh in Uttar Pradesh with thirty Aonla growers (18 marginal, 6 small and 16 big farmers ) selected randomly from six village of the selected block. One mandi and three processing units were also selected to study the economics of different Aonla products and marketing functionaries. The investigation revealed that on an average investment of Rs. 510950 was needed to establish an Aonla processing unit. The cost of Morabba preparation worked out to Rs. 5594.40 for one quintal of Aonla morabba while cost of one quintal of aonla pickle preparation came to Rs. 4998.85 and Rs. 6073.45 worked out for preparation of one quintal of aonla chutney. There were four marketing channels observed to dispose of the aonla produce. Channel IV was more common to dispose off aonla and aonla produce in the study area. The highest producers’ share in consumers’ rupee was achieved in channel I (98.5 %) but only 10 per cent respondents followed this channel due to lack of demand in local. Channel III was second largest followed channel provide 60.5 per cent of the producers’ share in consumers’ rupee.Keywords
