Abstract

Doubling Farmer Income through application of precious irrigation and water saving techniques in vegetable crops may be possible under change in climatic and water scarcity conditions by proper inclusive adaptation of the results of present field experiment investigation. Significantly higher, net returns and benefit cost ratio Was observed in IR treatment I1.00. Total cost of cultivation and benefit cost ratio were significantly higher in IR treatment I0.75. The net returns and benefit cost ratio were significantly higher in WST treatment MK and benefit cost ratio were in MC. The treatment combination I1.00 x MK had given higher returns followed by followed by the treatment I0.75 x MBP among all the treatments. However, based on the IWM aspect to overcome the problem of irrigation water scarcity, adaptation and mitigation of changed climate as well as projected future climate change through precision farming, increasing leaf area, decreasing ambient temperature and economic profitability factor i.e. net returns from the cultivation of headed broccoli, the treatment combination I0.75 x MBP and I0.50 x MBP were observed significantly superior amongst all the treatments.
