Abstract :
Based on primary data as yield obtained from present research work and with the help of questionnaire through personal interview from farmers, cost benefit analysis on field experiment for Green gram crop was carried out. Experimental study area is one hector with five treatments where T5 was kept as control and four others treatment were T1-Vermicompost @ 6.25 t/h, T2-NADEP compost @ 6.25 t/ha, T3-pit compost @ 6.25 t/ha, and T4-chemical fertilizer (50:25:25- N: P2O5: K2O kg/ha). Yield of Green gram was harvested after 90th day. The per hectare cost of cultivation of Green gram crop was Rs 1,39,813 which gives gross reruns of Rs 1,94,243 with the application of vermicompost treatment (T1). The per hectare cost of cultivation of Green gram crop was Rs 1,16,823 which gives gross reruns of Rs 1,75,553 with the application of NADEP compost treatment (T2). The per hectare cost of cultivation of Green gram crop was Rs 1,05,179 which gives gross reruns of Rs 1,05,688 with the application of pit compost treatment (T3). The per hectare cost of cultivation of Green gram crop was Rs 89,919 which gives gross reruns of Rs 1,37,060 with the application of chemical fertilizer treatment (T4). The per hectare cost of cultivation of Green gram crop was Rs 91,093 which gives gross reruns of Rs 1,58,865 in control treatment (T5). The input output ratios were about in 1.38, 1.50, 1.00, 1.52 and 1.74 the treatment T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 respectively. The analysis of the data revealed that, the cost of cultivation of Green gram crop was more (Rs 1,39,813) with B/C ratio (1.38) with vermicompost treatment. Green gram crop was most profitable in control treatment followed by chemical fertilizer treatment.
