The study was conducted in North Eastern Hill (NEH) region of India during 2018-2020.Multistage sampling technique was adopted. Sikkim was selected purposively as the controlstate and Nagaland was selected based on the highest area and production under pulses. 60respondents each from organic adopter and non-adopter were selected making a total samplesize of 120. The growth rate in area, production and productivity at the world, India andNEH states were found to be positive. However, higher growth rate were observed forthe NEH region. Significance difference was observed only on cost of fertilizers. The totalcost of rice bean cultivation was lower in organic adopter by 1.71 per cent. The averageyield was significantly higher for the organic adopter. The gross income and net incomewere also higher for the organic adopter. Organic farming was found to be more profitableand it can enhance the farmer’s income. Allocative efficiency indicates that all the resourcesused in the region need to be increase so as to achieve the maximum potential yield andhenceforth increase the returns. |
