A group of 50 women from each village (total 100 respondents) were selected randomly. Socio-economic, personal, Communicational, Psychological, Situational parameter were taken as independent variable and awareness of bee-keeping, feasibility of beekeeping, impact of training (knowledge gain, change in attitude and symbolic adoption) were taken as dependent.

Majority of the respondents had very less awareness about beekeeping technology benefits of beekeeping, and bee products, except honey and perceived feasibility of beekeeping enterprise as medium. Training on beekeeping was organized in collaboration wih Haryana agro industries cooperation, which resulted in significant increase in awareness about benefits of beekeeping and bee products, knowledge, attitude and symbolic adoption of respondents. A positive and significant correlation was found between change in attitude and age, education and economic motivation, material possession social participation and risk orientation, while there was negative and significant relationship between knowledge gain and age but significant and positive correlation between education, extension contact and mass media exposure.
