Abstract
Horticulture sector is a prominent sector among agriculture
and allied activities as means of diversification and nature has placed India
in a place of pride on horticultural development map of the world. India
is second largest producer of fruit in the world. Papaya (Carica papaya.) is an
important fruit crop in India. The total area, production and productivity of papaya
crop in India and Gujarat look impressive but is not up to mark of its potential.
The above facts would substantiate the need to find out such lacuna on the part of
the papaya growers. One way by which extension scientist can contribute to this
task is to find out better ways and means of promoting papaya cultivation
technology. There is a great scope of increasing its export by increasing its quality
production through adoption of improved cultivation technology.
