If the MVP/MC is greater than unity, It indicates scope for increasing the expenditure on input variable. If the ratio less than unity, it indicates excess expenditure on the variable and consequent need to decrease the input use. In the light of present inferences, resource use efficiency of all five variables could not be happened either less than or equal to unity. The results indicated that there was sufficient scope for increasing the variable (labour, seed/suckers, manure & fertilizer and irrigation). In order to attain profitability of mentha oil production the ratio has to tend to unity as, it indicates efficient use of various resources of production. The use of human labour, seed, manure and fertilizer, irrigation and distillation charges have showed positive response on production on all size group of farms.

Being a labour intensive crop, cultivation, distillation, processing and marketing of mint provide ample employment opportunities in rural areas. Sakran and Biswan block of Sitapur District having highest area in mentha cultivation was selected from 19 blocks of sitapur district. A list of 100 farmers were selected randomly from villages namely Sakran, Kutbapur, Kuttupur Nipania, Nipania Maphe based on acreage under menthe cultivation 925 from each village). The farmers were categorized in marginal, small, medium and large category for analysis and interpretation of results. the major component on which cost was incurred being machinery charges 12.58 percent and Manure & fertilizer 18.02 percent. The input output ratios reveals that one rupee invested earn rupee 2.27 to 7.44 for marginal and large farmers respectively. The economic benefit gets reduced over different cost concepts over all the size group of farmers. Benefits over cost C3 the profit got reduced to 41.85, 38.37, 40.08, and 36.15 percent for marginal, small, medium, large farmers respectively.

This distress is spreading and getting severe over time impacting almost half of the population of the country that is dependent on farming for livelihood. Two Block from one district Kanpur Dehat was selected. From all four villages, twenty-five farmers from each village thus in total 100 farmers were selected randomly for collection of first-hand primary information was collected and from this list 100 such Small, Medium, Large, and very Large. The same procedure will be adopted for selection of farmers in selected Block. Finally, a total of 100 small medium and large category farmers will be selected to draw the inference after data collection and analysis. Major problem and constraints faced by the entrepreneurs of the district were basically divided in four parts i.e. (a) Technical problem (Knowledge and skill), (b) Managerial problem, (c) Financial problem, and (d) Miscellaneous problem. Table .2 as per the average score found against the respective problems, financial problem was ranked 1 st followed by technical problem, Managerial problem and Miscellaneous problem ranked as 2 nd , 3 rd , and 4 th .The goal should be to double incomes of rural, farm owning households in the bottom quartile income. A supplementary goal should be to use this effort to trigger a much-needed boost to agriculture and to Agrirelated manufacturing. Major suggestions received from the respondent side to overcome the mentioned problems were to strengthen the extension services improvement of input supply system and financial support from financial institution. Detail knowledge about decision making diversification and budgeting as well as disposal of farm produce along with market information should be extended.

There were twenty-five farmers from each village thus in total 100 farmers were selected randomly for collection of first hand the selected farmers were grouped into Small, Medium, Large, and very large categories. Farmer undertaking 2 enterprise was found to be more educated 66 percent followed by single enterprise 62%, four enterprise 61% and triple enterprise 59%. The socioeconomic profiles by the various enterprises are presented in table 1. The gross cultivated area was higher (48.48%) in the Rabi season followed by Kharif season (46.46%) and less in Zaid season (5.05%) on all farm situations. Cropping pattern of the sample farms for crop production percent area to gross cultivated area shows decreasing trend with increasing size of farms. In total area of per sample farm for crop production 0.65, 3.01 and 1.5 hectare under marginal, small and medium sample farms. To established rationalized the use of resources in order to decrease the cost, to adopt better management practices and to guide each household owners who adopts the more no. of enterprise, also single and diversified with latest technology for improvement of better living standard and farmer's income.

Till the date 19 th instalments has been transfers to the farmers through DBT and now has been total number of beneficiaries 9,88,42,900 and amount disbursed 22,270.45 Cr. The study was conducted year 2023-2024 has been carried out on the basis of primary data collected from the study area. the purposive cum random sampling design has been used for the selection of district, block, villages and respondents to investigate the socioeconomic position of beneficiary farmers through PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme. Rasulabad and Maitha blocks of Kanpur Dehat district have been chosen purposively, and arranged in descending order of beneficiaries of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme, two top ranking blocks had selected purposively. Three villages from each block i.e. a total of six villages were selected purposively based on the highest number of beneficiaries in the villages (www.pmkisan.gov.in). an understanding of the socioeconomic status of the farmers as majority of the respondents were marginal and small farmers followed by medium and large, they were engaged in mainly farming, subsidiary occupation involving on farm, off farm and nonfarm activities. As could be seen from the Table 1, most of the farmers were in junior high school educated 32% and among total number of farmers family with education up to secondary level was 80%. The average land holding size was maximum 4.63 ha in large farmers and has 2.78 ha in medium farmers Remaining 1.35 ha, 0.61 ha was in small and marginal farmers. The average cost of cultivation of the beneficiary farmers was Rs. 87747, while that same season were Rs. 98552 in marginal, Rs. 88860 in small, followed by Rs. 82960, Rs. 79534 costs in medium and large farmers respectively. the overall average gross income of the beneficiary was Rs. 118274 and net income was Rs.30531 similarly, in category size of sample farms the gross income of large farmers Rs. 124677 was maximum among the categories as well as net income Rs. 45143 was also highest followed by Rs. 32420, Rs. 24562, Rs. 21065 in medium, small and marginal farmers. PM-KISAN scheme provided the input and harvesting support to the all-sample farms. This might also defend them from deteriorating within side the clutches of moneylenders for meeting such charges and ensure their continuance in the farming activities. the above study summarizes the socioeconomic position of a marginal, small, medium and large farmers and show reduction of financial distress in beneficiary farmers to certain extent and increase in returns from the use of distributed of PM Kisan scheme amount and through the scheme farmers improving their social and economic well-being.
