Abstract: This study investigates the cost and returns of selected summer crop in Chandrapur district. The district was selected purposively by considering the potential area under summer crop cultivation. Total of 90 farmer were selected 30 farmers of summer paddy, 30 farmers of summer mung bean and 30 farmers of summer sesame were selected. The loglinear cobb – Douglas production function was used to analyse the data. The result revealed that summer mung, coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.71 which means 71 per cent variation in yield explained by variables. In case of summer paddy coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.87 which means 87 per cent variation in yield explained by variables. Similarly in case of sesame coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.89 which means 89 per cent variation in yield explained by variables.
