The cluster frontline demonstrations on canola type variety of gobhi sarson (Brassica napus) GSC 7 were conducted on 30 ha area by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, S.A.S. Nagar (Mohali) in three blocks of district namely Kharar, Majri and Dera Bassi during rabi season of 2017–18. The results revealed that timely sown demonstration plots where proper thinning and gap filling practices were followed, recorded higher average yield (20.86 q/ha) over control plots (17 q/ha). Benefit cost ratio for demonstration and control plots was 3.05 and 2.42, respectively. Timely sown gobhi sarson variety not only improves the crop yield but also lowers its cost of production.
