Wheat variety HD-3059 was disseminated through on farm Testing and Front-Line Demonstrations at farmer’s field in Bijnor district. The demonstrations conducted during last three years (2014 & 2015), were considered for the study. The result indicated that average yield of wheat variety HD-3059 in IP practices ranged between 42.50 to 47.50 q/ha in different blocks of district Bijnor. The adoption of wheat variety HD-3059 was significantly increased in farmers due to higher product, which ultimately resulted in more net return.
