Comparative cost Economics of the Effect of Drip Fertigation on Chillies among Different Fertigation Equipment
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 6
Abstract
An attempt has been made to compare the economics of cost of production in chilli, for drip fertigation and conventional fertigation was carried out, at field irrigation laboratory of department of Soil and Water Engineering, College of Agricultural Engineering, Bapatla during rabi 2015-16. Though the initial capital investment was high in drip irrigation system, the cumulative benefit would be greater and considering the longer life of the system. The benefit cost ratio of chillies were analyzed by calculating the annual cost, cost of cultivation, seasonal total cost, yield produced, selling price, income from produce. Highest income from produce was recorded for the treatment T1 (Rs.157650.00), followed by the treatment T2 (Rs.150450.00) whereas T3 recorded (Rs.122850.00). The lowest net seasonal income was recorded for the treatment T4 (Rs.89100.00) was estimated by multiplying the total production of chillies value with prevailing market rate.
