Studies were conducted at Instructional farm, College of Agriculture, SKRAU, Bikaner during rabi, 2016–17.

The maximum seed yield was obtained in the treatment of cartap-hydrochloride whereas, it was minimum in control. The maximum incremental benefit-cost ratio was obtained in the treatment of acephate (33.22) while, minimum in NSKE. The maximum net return of RS. 25846 ha−1 was obtained from the treatment of cartap-hydrochloride while, the minimum net return of Rs. 3856 ha−1 was obtained from NSKE.
