Adoption of improved production technologies of sesame offers a great scope for increasing productivity and profitability to overcome the problem of low productivity under rainfed cultivation under poor management and input starved conditions. The study was conducted by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Morigaon during summer 2016 and 2017 under Cluster Frontline Demonstration of Oilseed (CFLD) programme to enhance the productivity and profitability of sesame by transfer of improved technology. The result revealed that the maximum seed yield of sesame was obtained under demonstrated plots ranged between 627 kg/ha to 672 kg/ha with an average of 645 q/ha which was 25.97 percent higher as compared to local check with an average of 5.12 q/ha. Extension gap between demonstrated plots and local check was found with an average of 1.33 q/ha. The maximum average net returns (Rs. 39050 ha-1) and benefit cost ratio (2.23) were recorded under demonstrated plots as compared to local check (Rs. 15700 ha-1 and 1.22 respectively).
