Abstract: Front Line Demonstrations (FLD) on Blackgram var. PU-31, Soybean var. DSb-19 and Lentil var. HUL 57 were conducted by the Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Bishnupur district during the year 2017-2018 in the adopted farmer’s field in Bishnupur district of Manipur to show the higher production potentiality of the technique using improved variety. In Blackgram technologies gave higher yield of 8.53qt/ha in an average with 32.12% increase in average yield over farmer’s local practices. The study also registered improved technology gives higher gross return (Rs. 68240/ha.), net return (Rs. 39540/ha.) with higher benefit cost ratio (2.38:1) as compared to farmer’s local practices (1.67:1). In Soybean 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. In Lentil, the demonstration packages on high, low and average yield of Lentil were recorded 12.85 Qt/ha., 5.79 Qt/ha., and 12.60 Qt/ha., respectively. It was found higher than yield of local checked (9.86 Qt/ha.). The technology gap in the demonstration yield over potential yield was 2Qt/ha. The highest extension gap of 3Qt/ha was recorded. The technology index was 12 percents. The cultivation of Lentil var. HUL 57 under improved technologies gave higher net return of Rs 72800/ha, as compared to farmers practices Rs. 56880/ha. The benefit cost ratio of Lentil var. HUL 57 under improved technologies was 2.60:1 as compared to 2.58:1 under farmer’s practices.
