The study was undertaken to assess the impact of Farmer Producer Organization (FPO)-led maize marketing on Farmers’ income in the year 2021–22. Bai-Perron structural break analysis in area and productivity was carried out from the year 1990–2020 to find out year of shift in the crop. Major break in area was found in the year 2002 and break in productivity was found in the year 2006. Primary data was collected from two taluks in Davanagere district of Karnataka. Cost of cultivation, net income, B:C ratio and market efficiency among different channels were computed. Among three channels, Channel III (FPO-led marketing) showed highest B:C ratio of 2.17and market efficiency of 1.7. Regression adjustment model was used to compare effect of FPO-led marketing with traditional market channels. Farmers’ following channel III received 63071 /ha more net income than other channels.
