Front Line Demonstration is one of the most powerful tools for transfer of technology. The present study was undertaken to find out the yield through FLDs on mustard crop. Krishi Vigyan Kendra conducted 10 demonstrations on mustard during 2018-19 in one adopted village of Rewa district. Prevailing farmers’ practices were treated as control for comparison with recommended practices. The average yield of demonstrated plot was obtained 11.3 q/ha which was 36% higher compared to over control (7.2 q/ha). Keyword: Mustard, Front line demonstration
