Title: Evaluation of production potential and economics of Garlic-Maize-T. Aman rice based cropping system in Kurigram
Abstract: The study was conducted to determine the yield and economic return of two cropping patterns viz. introduced cropping pattern (Garlic-Maize-T. Aman rice) and farmers’ traditional pattern (Fallow-Boro-T. Aman rice) through incorporation of HYV crops with standard management practices for crop production. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with six dispersed replications in farmers’ fields in Ulipur, Kurigram during two consecutive years 2012-13 and 2013-14. Two years mean data showed that the standard management practices for the patterns provided significantly high yield. The gross return (Tk. 435176/ha) and net return (Tk. 195237/ha) of new pattern were respectively 26.06 % and 231 % higher than that of farmers’ pattern with 140% extra cost. The high marginal benefit cost ratio, land use efficiency and production efficiency indicated the superiority of the introduced pattern to the farmers’ traditional practices.
Key Words: Cropping pattern, Agronomic practices, Land use efficiency, Production potential and Marginal Benefit-Cost Ratio (MBCR)
