Abstract:
Green gram is an important pulse crop of summer season in northern hill zone of Chhattisgarh which is tribal belt of M.P. But the average productivity of crop is quite low due to various limiting factors including lack of awareness about improved production technology, use of Yellow Vein Mosaic Virus (YMV) susceptible varieties etc. The present study was conducted to assess the possibility of improvement in yield potential through use of YMV resistant high yielding varieties of green gram namely PDM - 139 and SML-668.
The varietal assessment trials were conducted by KVK, Umaria at 60 farmers field 0.25 ha each in different locations of Villages Tali, Sallaiya, Kherwa and Chandiya. The result of study showed average highest yield of variety SML- 668 (14.05 q/ha) followed by PDM 139 (12.99 q/ha) and HUM-1 (8.31 q/ha) in check plot. The highest average net profit of Rs. 47100 /ha was found under SML -668 where as it was only 41800 /ha under PDM- 139 and Rs 19483/ha from check plot of variety HUM -1. The cost benefit ratio was found 3.03, 2.80 and 1.87 respectively under varieties SML 668, PDM 139 and HUM -1.
