The study was conducted by KVK, Ferozepur in different six blocks during 2015-16. The soil of district was light to medium in texture and soil pH varied from neutral to slightly saline in nature. Total hundred front line demonstrations (FLDs) were conducted on summer moong variety SML 668 (Vigna radiate L.). The demonstrations plots had more grain yield as compared to the control plots. Almost 18 per cent increase was recorded in the demonstration yield over farmer’s practice. Even so in blocks of the district, higher grain yield was obtained in Ghal Khurd block (10.32 q/ha) followed by Zira block (9.35q/ha), Ferozepur block (8.98 q/ha), Makhu block (8.76 q/ha), Mamdot block (7.98 q/ha). Less grain yield was obtained in Guru Har Sahai Block (7.44 q/ha). In Ghal Khurd block where soil was medium in texture and moong crop was sown in advance which resulted highest yield as compared to remaining blocks. While on the contrary, gap between technology and extension was founded in all blocks. The demonstrations plots noticed higher net return as compared to check plot. Whereas benefit cost ratio (B: C ratio) was also recorded more in demonstrations as compared to farmer’s practices. By growing summer moong crop with improved technologies in between other crops can help to achieve doubling farm income goal.Keywords

Capsicum hybrid Mekong was grown under naturally ventilated polyhouse during summer season of 2012 atVegetable Research Farm, Department of Vegetable Science and Floriculture, CSKHPKV Palampur, Himachal Pradesh. Planting was done in two rows on 0.9 m wide bed leaving 60 cm path between two beds following the spacing of 60 cm × 30 cm (S1) and 45 cm × 30 cm (S2), with double (T1), three (T2) and four (T3) stems and fertilized (F1) twice a week and (F2) thrice a week. The data were analyzed statistically following Factorial Randomized BlockDesign. The result revealed that the plant height, fruit weight, fruit length, fruit breadth, pericarp thickness were significantly more in S1T1F2 treatment. The number of fruits per plant, fruit yield per plant, yield/ m2 and benefit cost ratio was significantly superior in S1T3F2 treatment. While there was no significant effect of spacing, training and fertigation levels on days to 50 per cent flowering, days to first harvest, harvest duration and shelf life at room temperature.Keywords
