Abstract

In the Bundelkhand region during 2018–19, fifteen front-line demonstrations were conducted on a one-hectare plot of chickpea cultivation using RVG-202 and JG–14. Integrated disease and pest management, improved varieties, and balanced fertiliser treatments are examples of improved technologies. On a village-by-village basis, the demonstration yield increased by 36.85% above local varieties. Variety JG-14 of chickpeas outperformed with a yield increase of 36.54%, followed by variety RVG-202. An average extension gap, technology gap, and technology index were 3.96 q/ha, 6.28 q/ha, and 29%, respectively, at the village level. Variety JG-14 had an average extension gap, technology gap, and technology index of 4.30 q/ha, 9 q/ha, and 36%, respectively. Hardua Village and variety JG-14 had maximum average cost benefit ratio returns of 1:2.18 and 1:3.16, respectively, for RVG-202.
