Author(s): Mandira Chakraborti, TA Khan and KK Barman
Abstract: A study was undertaken consecutively for two years in South district of Tripura where the Front Line Demonstration on toria variety TRC t-1-1-5-1 with scientific package of practices was conducted in the farmers’ field. A total of 200 nos. of demonstration were taken to study the yield gap between the demonstrated variety and the variety grown by the farmers. Yield of both demonstration and farmers’ practice were recorded and their yield gap, technology gap, extension gap and technology index were analysed. The toria variety TRC t-1-1-5-1 was found superior than the local varieties. On an average, 37.77% increased yield was accrued to the farmers as compared to local check. The net return and return per rupee invested were sufficiently high to motivate farmers for adoption of toria variety TRC t-1-1-5-1 with scientific package of practices.
