Abstract

The present investigation entitled “To study the economics of forage yield of promising varieties of oat (Avena sativa L.)” was carried out at the Instructional farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, (C.G.) during Kharif season. The soil of experimental field was sandy loam in texture, locally known as “matasi soil”. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replication. The treatments were allotted to different plots by using random method. Different varieties of oat (Avena sativa L.) viz. UPO-2005-1(V₁), NDO-1(V₂), Kent (SC) (V₃) and OS-6 (SC) (V₄) and four levels of nitrogen viz. 0 kg ha^-1 (N₁), 40 kg ha^-1 (N₂), 80 kg ha^-1 (N₃) and 120 kg ha^-1 (N₄) are two factors were kept under different treatment combinations.

Maximum net profit (Rs 11405.50 ha^-1) and B: C ratio (Rs 1.21 Rp^-1invested) was obtained in V₁N₄ (UPO-2005-1 + Nitrogen @ 120 kg ha^-1) treatment combination followed by V₁N₃ (UPO-2005-1 + Nitrogen @ 80 kg ha^-1) (Rs 11308.00 ha^-1) and B:C ratio (Rs 1.25), respectively, while it was found lowest under V₂N₁ (NDO-1+ Nitrogen @ 0 kg ha^-1) treatment combination. Among different varieties of oat, UPO-2005-1 fetched maximum net profit (Rs. 11405.50 ha^-1) and B:C ratio (1.21) while NDO-1 variety could bring lowest in net profit and B:C ratio.
