The study was conducted in Bareilly district of western UP regarding adoption ofrecommendation of soil health card scheme and its impact on productivity and economicsof different crops i.e. wheat, paddy and sugarcane. It was found that only 40 per centfarmers owned soil health card. However, due to adoption of SHT based fertilizerrecommendations there was a significant increase in crop yields of wheat (30.80%), paddy(29.80%) and sugarcane (32.90%). In addition, the adoption of SHT based fertilizerrecommendation had a significant reduction in production cost by Rs. 2130, 2164 and3122/- per acre of wheat, paddy and sugarcane crops, respectively. Also, the net increasein farmer’s income was realised from one acre of wheat, paddy and sugarcane was aboutRs. 11197, 12058 & 29187, respectively. Thus, the application of SHT under fieldcondition has reduced the production cost and increased the farmers’ income.
