Abstract

The economic analysis of hybrid vis-à-vis high-yielding varieties of vegetables (okra and bottle guard) in Haryana was conducted in Nuh (Mewat) and Panipat districts of Haryana. From each district, 40 farmers and a total 80 vegetable growers interacted to extract relevant information pertaining to inputs used, expenses incurred, and output attained during 2022-23. The results of the present study revealed that overall the cost of cultivation of okra hybrid and HYVs was Rs. 211978 and Rs. 184824 ha-1, respectively. Similarly, overall the cost of cultivation of bottle gourd hybrid and HYVs was Rs. 162541 and Rs. 155520 ha-1, respectively. The overall net return from okra and bottle guard hybrids was higher as compared to HYVs. The BC ratio of okra hybrid and HYVs was 1.45 and 1.24, respectively whereas; it was 1.44 and 1.20, respectively for bottle gourd hybrid and HYVs. Seed and sowing were the main items of saving in both HYVs as compared to the hybrid of both crops. But there was a yield penalty of 18.93 and 20.46% in okra and bottle gourd HYVs, respectively.
