Abstract: Broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica,) belongs to Brassicaceae family. This is one of the exotic vegetable introduced in India. To evaluate the most profitable treatment, economic analysis of treatments was worked out in terms of net return and Cost benefit ratio (C: B) ratio. The production cost of crop per hectare, marketing cost per hectare, Cost of FYM per hectare, Cost of Boron per hectare, and miscellaneous charges (Irrigation, plant protection measures, harvesting of fruits etc.) was found different as per the treatments. The cost incurred on the different application of boron and FYM in various treatments was found to be 88250, 87550 and 86850 costs with soil application of boron followed by 84890 costs with foliar application of boron. In case of 50% FYM and soil application of boron with different treatments it was found 80250, 79550, 78850 costs and followed by 68050 costs of control. It was found that T7 (Soil application of Borax @ 15 kg/ha + Recommended dose of NPK + 100% of FYM) treatment was best and showed highest yield and net returns per hectare 208.1 q ha-1 and Rs. 223900 respectively but T10 (Soil application of Borax @ 15 kg/ha + Recommended dose of NPK + 50% of FYM) treatment was found to be best treatment combination as evidenced by cost: benefit ratio of 1: 3.70.
