dc.description.abstractThe propagation of a plant by using a plant part or single cell or group cell in a test tube under very controlled and hygienic conditions is called "Tissue Culture". The study conducted in Khagaria district of Bihar. Two blocks from district, six villages and sixty sample farmers were chosen from eliciting information. The study revealed that, in crop-I, per hectare production cost of sucker banana was Rs. 86,635 and tissue culture banana was Rs. 1, 06,958.33 the gross returns obtained were Rs.1,70,320.09 and Rs. 2,01,952 respectively. The net returns obtained were Rs. 83,685.00 and Rs.94, 993.72 respectively. In crop – II, production cost of sucker banana was Rs. 60465.11 and for tissue culture banana was Rs. 63886.27 the gross returns were Rs. 187196.35 and Rs. 216089.05 net returns were Rs. 126731.00 and Rs. 152202.70 respectively. In crop – III, production cost of sucker banana was Rs. 58946.90 and for tissue culture banana was Rs. 61721.84 the gross returns were Rs. 155346.62 and Rs. 192262.96 net returns were Rs. 96399.27 and Rs. 130541.12 respectively. In sucker banana regression coefficient of FYM and fertilizers was significant at 5 percent, and coefficients of plant protection chemicals and machine labour were non-significant. The regression coefficient of human labour was significant at 1 percent. In tissue culture banana the regression co-efficient of plantlets was significant at 5 percent level and coefficients of plant protection chemicals, human labour and bullock were significant at 1 percent level. The technical, allocative and economic efficiency of sucker banana were 79.40, 69.30 and 55.02, and tissue culture banana were 75.80, 55.60 and 42.14 respectively. The non availability of adequate labour, destruction of plants due to high wind, fluctuation in market prices, avaibality of planting material were the major problems identified. Adoption of drip irrigation was suggested to save labour in banana cultivation.en_US
