Abstract
Appropriate agricultural practices have positive and sustainable impacts on rural farmers’ livelihood possessions and strategies to overcome the climate vulnerabilities. The benefit cost ratio (BCR) is a relative measure which is used to determine benefit per unit cost and helps farmers in decision making activities. A study was carried out in the Sirajganj district during 2017, to compare the cost and revenue of Aus, Aman and Boro rice, using benefit cost ratio technique. The Sirajganj district consists of nine upzilas. Ten farmers of each upzila were randomly selected and primary data were personally collected from the respondents through structural questionnaire. The data about Aus, Aman and Boro rice and their cost as well as returns were collected in farmers’ field. The collected data were then sorted, scrutinized and analyzed to achieve the goal set for the study. Results revealed that the total cost of production in Aus rice varied 40856-71353 Tk./ha, gross returns 90651-123889 Tk./ha, cost of per kilogram rice production was 9.87 – 15.45 Tk./kg and BCR 1.61-2.22. The total cost of Aman (Local) rice varied 43031-69067 Tk./ha, gross returns 57651-86889 Tk./ha, cost of per kilogram rice production was 14.98 - 21.40 Tk./kg and BCR 1.25-1.65. The total cost of Aman (HYV) rice varied 66111-78724 Tk./ha, gross returns 123321-164439 Tk./ha, cost of per kilogram rice production was 9.87-14.45 Tk./kg and BCR 1.70-2.22. The total cost of Boro (HYV) rice varied 89129-96886 Tk./ha, gross returns 164439-208956 Tk./ha, cost of per kilogram rice production was 9.31-13.84 Tk./kg and BCR 1.90-2.31. The total cost of Boro (Hybrid) rice varied 92868-99684 Tk./ha, gross returns 205524-226083 Tk./ha, cost of per kilogram rice production 8.99-10.74 Tk./kg and BCR 2.10-2.36. Aus/Aman rice cultivation is eco-friendly i.e., needs less ground water, lower risk of early floods and hailstorms, etc.
Key Words: Aus rice, Aman rice, Boro rice, Cost, Return and Benefit cost-ratio.
