The Bundelkhand region of Uttar Pradesh is the major chickpea growing region of India were it is the main livelihood of the farmers dependent on agriculture in general. The Bundelkhand region comprises of 13 districts of which 7 are in Uttar Pradesh and 6 in Madhya Pradesh. The major pulse crops grown in the region are pigeon pea, urdbean, and mungbean cultivated during kharif and the chickpea, field pea and lentil in the rabi season. The study was carried out in of Baberu block in district Banda having largest area under chickpea. The coefficient of determination revealed that independent variables i.e. man-days x1, seed x2, and PPM x5 estimated were significant at the 1 per cent level of significance and the sum of the elasticity’s indicated the diminishing returns to scale. While the MVP of different inputs was found underutilized of chickpea production in the study area.
