| Summary, etc. | With water scarcity and groundwater depletion increasing as significant issues, it is crucial to adopt the irrigation systems encouraging decreased amount of water application to agriculture, to reduce water waste. Hence this study aims to examine the profitability and limitations of DIT implementation for sugarcane growers in Belagavi, Karnataka, India. The approach used a sample size of 79 adopters and 77 non-adopters of drip irrigation system, with a focus on three main objectives. First, economic viability was investigated using Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR) and Net Present Value (NPV) calculations, which revealed lower NPV and BCR for adopters than non adopters across three farm sizes i.e. small, medium and large with small non-adopters having highest NPV and BCR. The data indicate that, while DIT appears to be less economically profitable than traditional approaches, although it has significant environmental benefits by reducing water usage. Second, technical efficiency was examined using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for adopters and non-adopters individually, with an average efficiency of 42.5% among adopters and 59.5% among non-adopters. The facts revealed, the opportunity for improvement for the farmers to plan the irrigation water application. Finally, thematic analysis was used to investigate the obstacles faced by adopters and the barriers that prevent non-adopters from implementing DIT. Adopters face major hurdles such as upkeep, technological complexity, and a large initial investment, whereas non-adopters identify financial restrictions as the principal barrier. Finally, notwithstanding the economic inequities, DIT's environmental benefits highlight its importance, particularly in water-stressed places. As a result, the decision to implement DIT should be based on the area's water state, with a focus on a balanced approach that takes into account both economic viability and sustainability. |
