land Pesticide on Test land with APSA 80 inspection of crop after 40-45 days Action on control land Yeild Results % increase with APSA 80 use Qualitative observation Premium paid Cost per quintal Revenue score card Profit over sticker Investment on Surfactant Return on investment for APSA 80 non irrigated - Dependant on seasonal rain Toor Dal/Tuvar dal (pulse, lentils) 3 Acres as control land, 3 Acres with APSA 80 Pesticide + Sticker (500 ml) mixer is Sprinkled on toor dal crop. (Sticker is surfactant mixed with pesticide for better adhesion on leaf.) Pesticide + APSA 80 (500 ml) mixer is Sprinkled on toor dal crop. (In this case, Sticker is replaced with APSA 80) 1. Observation of Pesticide + Sticker mixer crop (control land) showed that the insects are appereaed again and damaging crop 2. However, Pesticide + APSA80 mixer crop (test land) was healthy with no sign of insects Control land crop is retreated with another round of pesticide + Sticker mixer 10 Quintal (1000 kg) Control land, where sticker is used), for ASPA 80 Test land 40% APSA 80 crop seeds were observed very healthy with complete filling In market, the APSA crop has fetched additional Rs 1000 per quintal as premium value for its quality compared to Sticker crop. APSA toor dal was sold in market at rate of Rs 4200 per quintal and Rs 3200 per quintal Rs 58800 (APSA 80) Rs 32000 (Sticker) Rs 26800 Rs 450 (500 ml, APSA 80 ) Rs 120 (for 1 lit, as sprinkled two times) Rs 59 as return for Rs 1 investment of APSA 80.
