The B/C ratio of model village project analyzed 1.52, which means this project is considerably feasible. Among the results of satisfaction survey, uniform sesame seed supply showed the highest score. The proper commodity selection is chosen as the most important success factor. Sesame was introduced as a cash crop which was substituted cotton in Paraguay.
