dc.description.abstractThe study was conducted to know the perception towards over-exploitation of irrigation water, awareness level of water management practices, constraints faced by the farmer in adoption of water conservation practices in Haryana. The study revealed that most of respondents belonged to middle age group (35-50 years), education up to matric level, belonged to joint family member up to 5-7. Major occupation was farming with medium size of land holding, most of the respondents had medium level of mass media exposure and extension contacts. The most of respondents were agreed towards ‘Change in ground water availability’ (450) and ‘Ground water table goes down’ (450) and ‘Mostly farmers stick with rice wheat cropping pattern’ (434). The most of respondents had high level of awareness towards ‘Laser levelling of field helps in saving of water’ (404), ‘Zero tillage in paddy-wheat crop rotation’ (378) and ‘Well maintained water supply system’ (367). The most serious constraints faced by respondents were ‘Availability of canal water is not sufficient (384), ‘Difficulty to arrange water ways from canal to field’ (383) and ‘Low level of income of farmer’ (379). The most effective suggestions were ‘MSP of alternative crop should be more than paddy crop’ (436), ‘Proper implementation of govt schemes related to water conservation’ (432) and ‘Field levelling may increase the efficiency of water’ (426). More than two third of the respondents were aware about the water management practices, and most of respondents were agreed towards the over-exploitation for irrigation water, more than three fourth of respondents faced the constraints in adoption of water management practice while, 70.01 per cent said that suggestive measures were effective to increase the adoption of water management practices.en_US
