Abstract
Agriculture is the primary sector and main stay of Indian economy as it provides the employment to more than 50 per cent of the workforce and enriched the country in food grain production. For the production of food grains the farmers of Haryana are using two type of farming methods i.e., organic and inorganic but the majority of the farmers in Haryana are using inorganic farming because the productivity and profit margins are higher in inorganic farming as compare to the organic farming which shows that the farmers are concerned about the quantity of the produce instead of quality. Therefore, it is important to disclose the reality after investigating and analyzing the BCR (benefit cost ratio) of organic and inorganic wheat production in Rohtak district of Haryana on per acre basis. The study showed that the cost of cultivation of organic wheat crop was low as compare to the inorganic wheat. Furthermore, the BCR of organic wheat was 1:1.04 while that of inorganic wheat was 1:1.009 which was lower than that of organic.
