In India, the area irrigated by the sprinkler system is 3.59 million ha, which is less than 2.5 % of the total area under irrigation. Madhya Pradesh has been covered 35195 ha area under micro irrigation (2017-18) Share of Sagar district in micro irrigation area 895.20 ha. Sagar has major wheat growing district under micro irrigation system (MPKSY). An intensive survey was made to collect the relevant data from adopters (48) and non adopters (12) of sprinkler irrigation system in cultivation of wheat. An overall the total cost of cultivation of wheat nominal increase by only 1.66 percent in cultivation of wheat in sprinkler (Rs. 17271.47/ acre) an against without sprinkler (Rs. 16989.87/ acre) irrigation system.
