چکیده
Based on the survey data, study has made yield and profitability comparisons in contexts of modern agricultural production technologies adopted by cotton growers district Bahawalpur. The extent adoption was gauged through constructing a farming index (MFI). points scored regarding MFI, were classified into five categories. By applying independent samples t-test, means between adopters non-adopters with respect to per acre yield, cost production, gross income, profit earned. On an average, comparison non-adopters, categories good exceptional obtaining respectively, 17% 22% higher same order, 19% 27% profit. without land laser levelling, those having levelled 11% 10.6% Likewise, pesticides manually, boom sprayer about 18.2% concludes that technology agriculture is pivotal productivity, outcomes at farm level, hence national level.
