- Observation The maximum net profit in pearl millet, Rupees 45209/ha, was obtained under SSNM.
- Observation The maximum benefit-cost ratio in pearl millet, 2.71, was obtained under SSNM.
- Observation The minimum net profit, Rupees 29818/ha, was recorded under farmer practice.
- Observation The minimum benefit-cost ratio, 2.53, was recorded under farmer practice.
