Abstract

The front line demonstration is very effective tool to demonstrate the recommended technologies among farmers. We conducted eighty demonstrations on wheat with recommended package of practices during 2018 to 2021 in Banaskantha district. The results revealed that the yield of wheat with latest improved practises under irrigated conditions were ranges from 4452 to 4502 kg/ha. While, it ranges between 3885 to 4099 kg/ha in farmer practice. The per cent increase in yield with improved practices over farmer practices were recorded in the range of 9.03 to 15.39 per cent. Extension gap of were ranging from 380 to 598 kg/ha. The benefit cost ratio was 2.19 to 2.87 under demonstration, while it was 1.44 to 2.34 under local check. Yield potential of wheat could be enhanced to a great extent with increasing the farmer’s income by conducting front line demonstration of latest recommended technologies.
