Abstract
The current study attempted to determine adoption indices, such as estimation of Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR), Internal rate of return (IRR), and economic surplus (ES) due to planting of irrigated durum wheat Shabrang variety during to concern period. This research was carried out in 2018-2019. Data were collected from institutes, Jihad-e-Agriculture organizations, Agricultural Research and Education, and Natural Resource Centers of targets provinces through filling out the questionnaire. The methodologies of the research were adoption analysis and economic surplus criteria. According to the results, the mean adoption degree of Shabrang variety to total irrigated durum wheat varieties and total irrigated wheat varieties was estimated at 71.7 and 1.5 percent. The highest adoption degree of Shabrang variety belonged to Kerman province. Reducing cost per kg of Shabrang varieties to check variety was calculated 6.7 percent. Net present value (NPV) of breeding program and planted of Shabrang variety was calculated 16.7 milliard rials. The benefit-cost ratio of the concern was estimated at 7.2 the internal rate of return (IRR) of Shabrang variety was estimated at 43.5 percent. Thus, it can be said that the breeding program and planting of irrigated durum wheat Shabrang variety in the country are evaluated economically.
