The average sampled household operational land holding size was 2.00 hectares with a cropping intensity of 192.00 per cent. Rs.29427.78/ha were calculated on average cost of maize cultivation. It was estimated that the total net return was Rs.33967.76. The overall maize input - output ratio on the sampled household was 1: 2.20. The function of Cobb - Douglas production was found to be best suited for this study. Expenditure on plant protection measures, machine labour, manure and fertilizer had a significant impact on the production of maize.
