180.00 Sq.km under Basirhat Irrigation Division<br />
Total<br />

= 829.25 Sq.krn = 829.25 x 100 Ha = 82,925 Ha<br />
Benefit due to Crop production<br />
Culturable or Cropped Area<br />
= 80% of 82925 Ha = 66,340 Ha<br />
Average Crop production as per Census Report = 25 Quintal per Ha per year<br />
Paddy Crop = 66,340 Ha x 25<br />
= 16,58,500 Quintal<br />
Straw =<br />
1.5 times of 16,58,500 Quintal<br />
= 24,87,750 Quintal<br />
Cost of Paddy =<br />
16,58,500 Qtl x Rs.600.00 per Qtl<br />
= Rs. 99,51,00,000.00<br />
Cost of Straw = 24,87,750 Qtl x Rs.175.00 per Qtl<br />
= Rs. 43,53,56,250.00<br />
Total Cost of Production = Rs. 99,51,00,000.00 + Rs. 43,53,56,250.00<br />
= Rs. 143,04,56,250.00<br />
