| Summary, etc | Paddy is the most dominant crop in Assam occupying 71.59 percent of its total net cropped area. Among paddy, Sali paddy occupies 78.56 percent of total paddy area in the state and 27.2 lakh farm families are engaged in cultivation of this particular crop every year. Hence, the present study was conducted in Tinsukia district of Assam to access the impact of improved technology adoption in paddy cultivation in terms of per hectare productivity gained, gross return and net return realized over its traditional mode of cultivation. As paddy is the most dominant crop of the district, it was selected purposively and from two randomly selected blocks, 100 farm households were selected randomly for the purpose of data collection in the pre-tested interview schedules. Collected data were later on compiled and analyzed with suitable economic and statistical tools to derive judicious decision for the betterment of paddy farmers of the district. Results from the study revealed that the average productivity gain due to the adoption of improved technology in paddy cultivation was 109.80 percent and its gain in gross return and net return were 179.73 percent and 1771.88 percent, respectively, over its traditional way of crop cultivation. Moreover, the extent of horizontal spread of improved technology of paddy crop in terms of new household coverage was 147.69 percent and in terms of new area coverage was 90.99 percent. Thus the study established that there was a distinct positive impact of improved technology adoption in paddy cultivation in the district.- Reproduced https://desagri.gov.in/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/ASI-Jan-2023-Final-copy.pdf |
