Abstract
The present study attempts to estimate the gross economic efficiency (GEE) of the paddy-wheat-milk production system in Punjab and work out the water use-efficient combination of crops and dairy enterprises. The study is based on secondary data from published and unpublished sources. The GEE of water use in paddy-wheat-milk production ranged from Rs. 22.47 per cubic metre (m3) to Rs. 60.46 per m3. The study revealed that diversifying the irrigated area under cereal crop towards green fodder crops can improve the output value and the efficiency of groundwater use.
