Abstract
A frontline demonstration (FLD) on broccoli was carried out during 2021-22 and 2022-23 respectively by Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), Tirap, Arunachal Pradesh at farmer’s field. The improved variety- Solan Green head was demonstrated with full package of practices. The FLD plots was recorded 146 & 167 q/ha yield as compared to 97 & 126 q/ha respectively under farmer’s practice. The technology gap was 34 & 13 q/ha, extension gap was 49 & 41 q/ha and technology index was 18 & 7 respectively, during the both the years of study. Similarly, the net income (Rs.34700 and 408000) and B:C ratio (3.81 and 4.38) was also higher under FLD as compared farmer’s practice (Rs.215000 and 294000, 2.82 and 3.50) due to implementation of improved production technologies.
