Front line demonstration of green gram were conducted from 2010-11 to 2017-18 at the farmer’s fields of operational area of Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Sri Ganganagar in Irrigated North Western Plain Zone- 1b of Rajasthan. The findings of seven years front line demonstrations indicated that improved green gram varieties i.e. SML 668 and IPM 02-3 with full package under demonstration had significant impact on seed yield compared to local varieties used by farmer. Further, mean results of the study revealed that average additional yield (1600 kg), yield increase (23.09%), net monetary return (Rs. 28226), additional returns (Rs. 7014), effective gain (Rs. 6002) and benefit: cost ratio (4.06) from one hectare were obtained as compared to farmer practices. It may be concluded that adoption of improved production technologies of green gram can reduce the technology gap to a considerable extent thus leading to increased productivity and also found productive, economic viable and also feasible to local conditions as compared to existing farmer practices.
