Author(s): Kabita Mishra
Abstract: The present study was conducted by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Ganjam-II during 2015 -16 in Rabi in village Giria under the jurisdiction of KVK, Ganjam-II. The KVK scientists has conducted frontline demonstration in sugarcane bud chip method with the active participation of farmers with the objective to demonstrate the improved technologies in crop. The results of demonstration showed that farmers could increase the sugarcane productivity notably by switching over to improved bud chip technology rather in conventional method. The demonstration results showed that the improved practice of bud chip method recorded 37.3% higher cane yield (122.6 t ha-1), extension gap (33.3 t ha-1) than farmer’s practice of conventional method. The same also produced higher tillers plant-1 (16.8) and number of millable canes clump-1 (14.1) with survival 92.6%. The improved practice also recorded the higher gross return of Rs. 281980 ha-1, B:C ratio (3.94) with additional net return of Rs.210416 ha-1 over local check of conventional method which can effectively be replaced in the existing farming situation for higher productivity.
