Author(s): P Satish, C Sudha Rani and K Sujatha
Abstract: Front line demonstrations were conducted at 200 farmers fields to demonstrate production potential of Rabi sorghum and economic benefits of improved technologies comprising high yielding Rabi Sorghum variety CSV 29 –R in Vikarabad district of southern Telangana region of Telangana during rabi 2014-2015, 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18 in rainfed condition. The additional yield under improved technologies over local practice ranged from 2.25 to 3.20 q/ha with a mean yield of 2.6 q/ha. In comparison to local practice, there was an increase of 16%, 15%, 17% and 20%. The improved technologies also incurred higher benefit cost: ratio of 3.16 to 3.24 the ratio was 2.31 to 2.50 over the local check during the respective years of 2014-15 to 2017-18.
