Abstract
The present study was conducted in Balaghat
district of Madhya Pradesh. The frontline demonstrations on rice crop conducted
by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Badgaon, Balaghat. The Hybrid rice JRH 05 recorded
plant height (95.21 cm), higher effective tillers per plant (22.5), length of
panicle (25.8 cm) and grains per panicle (242) and test weight (24.56g) then
local check. It is also recorded the higher test weight (24.56g), straw yield
(70.30 q per ha) and harvest index (46.66 %) over the years of study. The grain
yield showed 61. 5 q per ha and percentage is 30.30 % higher yield increase in
FLDs over farmers practice. In spite of increase in yield of improved
technology the technological gap, extension gap and technology index existed
which was 13.2 q per ha, 14.3 q per hectare and 18.86 %; respectively. The
improved technology of hybrid rice gave higher net return of Rs. 44722/- per ha
with a benefit cost ratio of 2.44 as compared to local check. Therefore, the
existing hybrid local check can be replaced by Hybrid rice JRH 05 since it fits
to the existing farming situation for higher productivity and higher net return
income.
