    ADOPTION OF PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY OF SAFED MUSLI (Chlorophytum borivilianum) IN JHARKHAND - A CASE STUDY
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Kanke, Ranchi, Jharkhand, 2011) HEMROM, PRADEEP KUMAR; Bara, Niva
    The findings presented in the preceding paragraphs lead to conclude that education was the strongest contributing factor for innovative Safed Musli growers to adopt improved technology and get access of credit, training and mass media. Further profit making was the prime motive of the Musli growers. Case study further indicated that agri-preneurship like cultivation of Safed Musli requires technical knowledge as well as keen sense of marketing practices, exploitation of opportunities and willingness to the environment. Safed Musli growers under the study reported a number of constraints which could be removed by appropriate measures. It can be concluded that Government and research/extension system should promote end-to-end approach covering input supply, production, post-harvest management, processing and marketing of Safed Musli at par with other commercial crops.
