摘要：Cotton (Gossypium spp.), also known as the "white gold" or "king of fibres," is inextricably linked to human civilisation. It has a significant impact on India's economy. In the years 2019-2020, an investigation was conducted in the Bhadradri kothagudem area of Telangana. Inputs, cost and returns, and production data were collected from 120 cotton growers via personal interviews. The whole yield difference was predicted to be 21.69 percent. It was discovered that the total yield gap varied with the size of land holdings and that the size of land holdings and the total yield gap had an inverse connection. This hypothesis states that as the size of a land holding grows, the total yield gap shrinks. The reasons driving the yield gap in cotton have to be identified in order to narrow the yield gap. The gap between the suggested levels of all critical inputs at progressive farmers plot and actual input use levels was determined to be a primary driver for vast variances in realising the potential farm production on sample farms, according to the functional analysis of the yield gap in cotton. The data can be used to form conclusions about how to reduce the yield gap-II by using recommended levels of key inputs.
