dc.description.abstractThe present study was carried out with the objective to study the extent of use of IPM-INM among IPM-INM farmers, to estimate the cost of cultivation, yield and returns obtained in the IPM-INM and CPM farmers and to identify the constraints faced by the farmer in the adoption of IPM-INM in basmati paddy. Four district of Haryana namely Karnal, Kaithal, Sonipat, Jind was purposively selected. One block was selected randomly from each district. From each Block, 20 IPM-INM farmers and 10 CPM farmers were selected. Thus, in all, 120 farmers were selected randomly. The primary data for the agriculture year 2019-20 was collected by survey method through personnel interviews of the selected farmers with the help of specially designed interval schedules. The overall findings reveal that mostly cultural practices are adopted by IPM-INM farmers and in case of INM, farmers use organic component more as compared to biological. The total cost of cultivation for IPM-INM paddy (₹ 110574/ha) was somewhat greater than CPM paddy (₹ 106456/ha), the per quintal cost of production of IPM-INM paddy (₹ 2197) which was lower as compared to its CPM (₹ 2300) mainly due to higher productivity of IPM-INM (50.33 q/ha) paddy than the CPM (46.29 q/ha). The gross returns from IPM-INM and CPM farm was estimated to ₹ 138854 and ₹ 127927 per hectare respectively. As indicated by B: C ratio of 1.26:1 for IPM-INM and 1.20:1 for CPM, paddy cultivation was economically more viable in IPM-INM methods than CPM paddy. As far as the constraints were concerned, Lack of skill in using IPM-INM tools was 37.50 per cent, non-availability of bio-pesticide agents and bio-fertilizers was with 96.25 per cent, Non-availability of labour for inter-culture like uprooting of weeds, cleaning of water channels/harvesting was 53.75 per cent. Therefore, the cultivation of paddy was found to be profitable with the adoption of IPM-INM technology due to the saving in cost of plant protection on one hand and increase in yield on the other. Based on the findings of the study, it is suggested that the extension activity need to be intensified to create awareness among the farmers for higher adoption of IPM-INM technology for sustainable production of paddy.en_US
