The total cost of cultivation of garlic was found rupees 39,891 per acre. The returns over variable cost were rupees 36942. The net returns after deducing all costs were observed rupees 22,656. The cost of production per quintal was calculated as Rs. 1,099.5. It was quite a remunerative crop. The producer’s share was revealed 68.41 percent of total consumer’s price.
