Produktbeschreibung
Wheat is a very good substitute of rice and can play a vital role from the viewpoint of food self-sufficiency. From the study wheat production was found to be profitable to the farmers. On the other hand, efficiency analysis implied that there is ample scope to increase the farmers' income and wheat yield by adopting the technologies adopted by the frontier farmers and cost can be considerably reduced without sacrificing the existing level of output. Wheat has a great potential in Bangladesh. For sustaining its production, some important measures include introduction of hybrid seed and improved production technology, development of wheat based cropping pattern and industry, providing training, following crop rotation, protecting environmental degradation and reasonable harvest price, market promotion, supplying agricultural credit, diversified uses, etc should be taken. The study also identified some socioeconomic and biophysical problems/constraints faced by the farmers, which hindered the higher production and yield of wheat, and also suggested some recommendations to improve the present production situation so that per hectare yield of wheat would possibly be increased.
