Performance of wheat (Variety VL 892) under front line demonstrations on Farmers field
Author(s): Praveen Singh and Ajay Gupta
Abstract: Front line demonstrations is a proven method for transfer of technology in Agriculture. Most of the transfer of technology through front line demonstrations is restricted to areas having wider road connectivity and progressive farmers. Most of the times, inaccessible areas and uneducated tribal farmers have least access to these front line demonstrations. Front line demonstrations on wheat were laid in inaccessible and tribal areas of Poonch district during rabi 2012-13 under ICAR Seed Project component tribal Sub Plan. The study was conducted to find out the impact of front line demonstrations in terms of plant height, grains/ear,1000 grain weight, grain and straw yield (q/ha), gross returns, net returns and B.C ratio in comparison with check (Raj 3077). The average grain yield of wheat variety VL 892 was found to be more (31.6) as compared to the check (HS) (26.7). Gross returns (42592), net returns (23792) and B:C ratio (2.3) was recorded higher in wheat variety VL 892 as compared to check variety with gross returns (35977), net returns (18777) and B:C ratio (2.1).
