Abstract: The present study entitled, ‘Comparative economics of farm pond beneficiary and non-beneficiary farmers of Malegaon tahasil of Washim district. The study was undertaken to examine the impact of farm ponds on production of major crops. For the present study, 50 beneficiary farmers having farm ponds and 50 non-beneficiary farmers without farm ponds on their field were selected from Malegaon tahasil of Washim district. 10 villages from Malegaon tahasil were selected purposively and, from each village sufficient samples of beneficiary and non-beneficiary farmers were taken randomly for comparison. The selected farmers were classified into three categories viz., small, medium, large according to their land holding. The primary data was collected from the farmers by survey method and cost concept i.e., cost ‘A’, cost ‘B’ and cost ‘C’ was used for the analysis of data. It is observed from the study that in case of beneficiary farmers at overall level the Output-input ratio at cost 'C' was 1:65, while in case of non-beneficiary farmers it was 1:40. It shows that the beneficiary farmers were more profitable than non-beneficiary farmers.
