The preset study is a part of the mandatory programme of Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Rewa (M.P). Participatory rural appraisal (PRA), the group discussion were following by explore the details information of study area. In between the technology intervention HRD components were also included to excel the farmers understanding and skill about the demonstrated technology on INM. The front line demonstration conducted adopted village viz., Khaur and Laksmanpur on paddy c.v poornima during Kharif 2008–09. The soli had pH 6.7, EC 0 22 dSm-l organice carbon 0.62%, available nitrogen 230 Kg/ha, phosphorus 15.04 Kg/ha and potassium 321.6 Kg/ha.The experiment incuded two treatments viz.. farmers practice (1.5 bags of each DAP and urea) chemical fertilizers thought (48.35:0 NPK) and recommended practice (80:40:30 NPK+ 5 Kg Zn+ 5 t FYM+12 Kg BGA+ 3 Kg PSB/ha). The increase in fertility level through INM (RP) from different sources increased the quantitative parameters of paddy. Higher grain and straw yields (37 and 60 q/ha) were observed in INM (RPO over Farmers practice (22 and 39 q/ha) respectively. Accordingly, the INM treatment (recommend ded practice) registered the highest B:C ratio 3.1 and lowest B:C ratio 2.5 was observed in case of farmers practice. Extension gap (15) was calculated This gap is denoted that there is a sufficient chance to increase in rice yield by adopting recommended technology. Technological gap (8.0) was calculated, this gap is express that there is need to guide and educate for adopting recommended technology.
