Economics, Groundnut, Kadiri Lepakshi, YieldAbstract
The on-farm testing was conducted at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Kalikiri in the farmer’s fields of Chittoor district to assess the performance of Kadiri Lepakshi variety under irrigated and rainfed conditions for yield and profitability of groundnut during rabi 2020-21 and kharif 2021-22. Technologies assessed in the study comprised of ‘Kadiri Lepaskhi’ as improved variety and ‘Narayani’ as farmers practice (local check). Results of two-year data revealed that Kadiri Lepakshi recorded 28.0 and 13.5 percent enhancement in pod yield during rabi 2020-21 and kharif 2021-22, respectively over farmers practice (12.61 q ha-1). As per the economic analysis, Kadiri Lepakshi and Narayani provided net returns of Rs. 22750 ha-1 and Rs.11775 ha-1 and BCR of 1.39 and 1.21, respectively. Overall, B:C ratio was found higher in Kadiri Lepakshi over local check variety Narayani.
