dc.description.abstractThe study entitled “A study of Adoption of Natural Farming in Apple Orchards of Chaupal Block”. The present study aimed to determine the adopters and non adopters of natural farming in terms of demographic variables in various panchayats of Chaupal block in district Shimla. The data was collected through the survey method using a structured questionnaire from 100 respondents (farmers). Most of the respondents managing the orchard belonging to both adopter and non adopter group are aware about natural farming, with 27 percent of the respondents have adopted natural farming during 2016-2020. The managers of the orchards got aware about Natural Farming by attending various camps on natural farming conducted in their villages and outside i.e. they are less active on social media and majority of the respondents are not aware about the schemes under natural farming. Although most of the non adopters are aware about natural farming but they still prefer conventional faming over natural farming because they have less knowledge about natural farming. Substantial numbers of the adopters have been using natural farming for 3-6 years in their orchards with 16 percent of the adopters using natural farming in a large percentage of their land i.e.75-100 percent of the total farming land. As a result, most of the adopters strongly believe that natural farming is cost effective over conventional farming.
