Abstract
In the present study, determinants of radish yield in two districts of Punjab, Pakistan were ascertained using Cobb Douglas type production function. Data were gathered from Sheikhupura and Sahiwal and a total of 97 radish growers were interviewed from these districts using purposive sampling technique during 2003. Results indicated that seed, fertilizer, labour hours used for weeding and education were positively related with radish yield whereas non-availability of quality seed and plant protection were negatively related with radish yield. Educating the vegetable growers to adopt modern technology and use appropriate inputs would increase radish yield to a great extent. Key words: Determinants, yield, radish, Punjab
