| dc.description.abstract | This study was conducted to assess the knowledge level, adoption level and technological gap for basmati rice production among the farmers of Haryana state. The study was conducted in Karnal and Kaithal district of Haryana state and theses district were selected purposively because of the highest acreages under basmati rice crop. One block was selected randomly from each of the district and, from each block, two villages were selected randomly and from each village, thirty farmers were selected. Thus, total 120 farmers were selected and interviewed with the help of well-structured schedule. The interview schedule was divided into four categories i.e., personal profile, knowledge level, adoption level and constraints. It was found that majority of the farmers were middle-aged (36-50 years), educated up to senior secondary, had semi-medium land holding status, medium socio-economic status, were late adopters, medium risk-orientation and economic motivation. Over two-thirds of farmers had medium knowledge of basmati rice production technology. Farmers were having more knowledge of recommended varieties, nursery raising, preparation of land, harvesting practices, number of irrigations used for basmati rice crop. Majority of farmers were showing medium level of adoption of recommended practices. The adoption level was found to be highest for recommended practices of harvesting and proper preparation of land. Technological gap was found to be highest for recommended plant protection measures and nutrient management. Non-availability of labor, high cost of machinery, lack of knowledge of plant protection measures and instability of market prices were the major constraints in adoption of basmati rice production technology. | en_US |
