Abstract: There is a wide gap existed in the potential yield and farmers yield on soybean crop of Bishnupur district. The study was carried out to demonstrate the production and economic benefit of adopting improved technologies. The improved technologies consisting use of modern variety, seed treatment with Carbendazim 50% and Mancozeb 50% @ 2g/kg seed, Rhizobium japonicum @ 10g/kg seed, balanced fertilizer application (NPKS@20:40:20:20 kg/ha ) and integrated pest management. Impact assessment recorded higher yield as well as higher economic return as compared to the farmer’s local practices. The demonstration of technologies gave higher yield of 9.14 Qt/ha in an average with 70.99% increase in average yield over farmer’s local practices. The study also registered improved technology gives higher gross return (Rs. 59410/ha.), net return (Rs. 28410/ha.) with higher benefit cost ratio (1.92:1) as compared to farmer’s local practices. The results indicated that the front line demonstrations have given a good impact over the farming community of Bishnupur district.
