Integrated farming system (IFS) have gained considerable attention as an effective approach to improving agricultural productivity, sustainability and income diversification. The present study was conducted with the objectives of evaluating the cost and return aspects of poultry cum fish and dairy cum fish farming systems and identifying the more economically feasible, profitable integration model which gives optimum utilisation of given resources. The analysis of data indicated that there was a significant increase in fish yield in poultry cum fish as compared to dairy cum fish integration in term of vigorous growth with high benefit cost ratio and return. Higher benefit cost ratio 3.16 was achieved in integrated experimental fish ponds in comparison to 2.02 in case of non-integrated control fish pond and 4.43 was achieved in poultry cum fish integration compared to 1.93 in case of dairy cum fish integration. The overall result revealed that the integrated poultry cum fish pond management was an excellent approach for sustainable production, income generation and employment opportunity of the resource poor rural households.
