dc.description.abstract | Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) is a grass root level institute designed and devoted to provide latest technical know-how of agriculture, animal science, home science and allied sciences by the principle of learning by doing in order to make them socially and economically independent. KVKs are functioning since 1974, but till today there is non-availability of home science literature pertaining to different departments of home science. First package of home science was released in 2005. This package included 35 messages related to different departments of home science. The study was conducted by selecting 50 field functionaries and 300 rural women. The effectiveness of package of practices was assessed on the three aspects i.e. title, content and conclusion by employing weighted score, mean score and rank. In overall effectiveness of content, body text achieved first rank. The title and conclusion were ranked as IInd and IIIrd, respectively. Enhancing the nutritive value of food with low cost, care during pregnancy, water purification through Janta water filter, paper pattern for children clothing and surf preparation at household level were the identified crucial messages from F.N., H.D.F.S., F.R.M., C.T. and H.S.E.E., respectively. Field applicability was assessed on two aspects i.e. attributes of innovation and visual assessment. First rank was given to simplicity-complexity, with regard to message of enhancing the nutritive value of food with low cost and surf preparation at household level, respectively. Cultural compatibility was ranked as first with regard to the message of care during pregnancy and water purification through Janta water filter. Triability was ranked as first with regard to field applicability of identified crucial message of clothing and textiles. With regard to visual assessment, it was observed that title was ranked as first with regard to the identified crucial message of foods and nutrition and family resource management. Self explanatory was ranked as first with regard to identified crucial message of care during pregnancy and paper pattern for children clothing. It was manifested that general get up was rated as first in case of surf preparation at household level. Illustrations of scientific information with pictures was ranked as first out of the seven suggested measures to enhance the field applicability of package of practices of home science. | en_US |
