YIELD GAP ANALYSIS AMONG RICE GROWERS OF EASTERN UTTAR PRADESH
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 15
Abstract
The present study analyses the total yield gap in Rice crop into three different gaps viz. yield gap-I, yield gap-II and total yield gap. The study was conducted in Mirzapur District using primary data collected from 60 sample farmers covering four sample Blocks for the year 2097- 2010. In order to evaluate the objectives of the study, a multistage stratified random sampling technique was adopted Most of the sample farmers were growing vatimansuri variety of rice crop. Yield gap analysis shows that 23 per cent yield gap was estimated between potential and potential farm yield where as yield gap between potential farm yield and actual yield was estimated 23.12 percent. Index of realized potential farm yield was observed 75.20 percent on marginal farms to 80 percent on large farms with an overall average of 76.0 percent. The main causing factors of yield gaps was due to variation in the quantum of resource used and proper timing of the resources use.
