The front line demonstration on system of Rice Intensification, were conducted on farmers field of Damoh District during Kharif of 2015-16 and 2016-17 at two different location under irrigated condition. Prevailing farmer’s practices were treated as control for comparison with improved practice i.e transplanting of rice in single seedling at two leaf stage (8-12 days) at a distance of 25cm or more in a square. The result of front line demonstration shows a greater impact on farming community due to significant increase in crop yield greater that farmers practices. The economics and benefit cost ratio of both farmers practices (FP) and Improved practices (IP) were worked out. The No. of effective tillers and grain per penicle were found lower (15/plant and 68/penicle) in FP and found higher (35/plant and 112/penicle) in IP. An average of Rs. 61000/ha was recorded net profit under IP, where It was Rs. 22200/ha under FP. Benefit cost ratio was 2.65 under IP, where it was 1.88 under FP. By introducing the improved technology i.e. SRI. Yield potential and net income from rice cultivation can be enhanced to a great extent with increase in the income level of the farming community of the District.
