Abstract :
This study investigated the impact of modern agricultural technology on farm productivity and cropping intensity after adoption of modern agricultural technology. Time series data were used from 1972- 2014 for empirical analysis collected from economic survey of Pakistan and Pakistan Bureau of statistics. ARDL technique was applied for checking Cointegration among variables. Cointegration results indicate that long run relationship exist among dependent and independent variables. Results show that modern technology has positive effect on production of wheat in long run and but in short run only tube well shows negative effect in short run relationship with production. The finding of this research study reveals that lack of credit facilities and insufficient extension services are the major problem that needs solution for crop protections measures and crop productivity. It is recommended that proper financial support may be given to the poor farmers by the government so that the farmers may be able to buy the equipments and increased their output.
