The study was carried out to evaluate the performance of improved cultivars with scientific package and practices on production, productivity and profitability of blackgram. Cluster frontline demonstrations were conducted during 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19 for evaluation of the performance of Pratap Urd-1, variety of blackgram in Bhaisakatta, Badatola, Albeda, Mode, Turakhar, Choriya, Puswada and Kapasi of Uttar-Bastar Kanker district and record the feedback information of farmer’s. The results revealed that the average yield of blackgram in cluster frontline Demonstrations were 6.16 q ha-1 as compare to 4.34 q ha-1 recorded in farmer’s practice with average yield increment of 41 per cent and additional return of 20613 and 12067 Rs ha-1, respectively. It was observed that the benefit cost ratio (B: C) of recommended practice (CFLD’s) were 2.24 as compared to 1.85 in farmer’s practice during consecutive years of study. The average extension gap 1.83 q ha-1 and average technology gap 5.88 q ha-1 was recorded. Therefore, the results clearly indicates that the use of improved varieties and package and practices with scientific intervention under frontline demonstration programme contribute to increase the productivity and profitability of blackgram in Uttar-Bastar Kanker district of Chhattisgarh.
