dc.description.abstractThe study entitled “Impact of PKV Kisan variety of paddy on the paddy growers” was purposively implemented in Bhandara district of Vidarbha region. The study was conducted in two tahsils of Bhandara district and from each tahsils three villages were selected on the basis of higher number of paddy growers of PKV Kisan variety of paddy and from each selected village, twenty number of paddy growers of PKV Kisan variety were taken into consideration. Thus data was collected from 120 paddy paddy growers of PKV Kisan variety. The information were collected from these 120 paddy growers with the help of structured and pretested interview schedule. The ex-post-facto design of social research was used for the present study. The specific objectives of the study are as under 1. To study the personal, socio-economic, situational, communicational and psychological characteristics of paddy growers of PKV Kisan variety 2. To study the impact of PKV Kisan variety on the paddy growers 3. To study the relationship between selected characteristics of paddy growers with the impact of PKV Kisan variety 4. To study the spread-up area of PKV Kisan variety of paddy 5. To identify the constraints faced by the paddy growers in the cultivation of PKV Kisan variety The findings revealed that, majority of growers were from middle age group, had education up to secondary school, possessed semi-medium land holding, agriculture as main occupation, with high level of farming experience, annual income the average area under paddy crop was up to 1.00 ha, majority followed seasonal cropping pattern, use medium level of sources of information, economic motivation and innovativeness were found to be medium level in and about fifty per cent having medium knowledge level. Regarding dependent variable, impact of PKV Kisan variety on the paddy growers was studied in terms of change in productivity, change in annual income and change in social participation. It was found that, there was total impact of 31.38 per cent. The ‘Z’ value of productivity, income and social participation was found to be positively and highly significant at 0.01 level of probability. In case relational analysis, between selected characteristics of paddy growers with productivity revealed that, education, income, area under PKV Kisan variety, source of information, economic motivation, innovativeness and knowledge was found to be positive and highly significant with productivity at 0.01 level of probability. Whereas, farming experience were found to be positively significant at 0.05 level of probability with productivity. The relational analysis between selected characteristics of paddy growers with income revealed that, Education, area under PKV Kisan variety, sources of information and knowledge were found to be positive and highly significant with income at 0.01 level of probability. Whereas, age, farming experience, income, economic motivation and innovativeness was found to be positively significant at 0.05 level of probability with income. The relational analysis between selected characteristics of paddy growers with social participation revealed that, education, area under PKV Kisan variety, cropping pattern, sources of information, economic motivation, innovativeness and knowledge was found to be positive and highly significant with social participation at 0.01 level of probability. The major constraints expressed by the paddy growers were credit facility for purchase input, high prices of fertilizer and heavy attack of insect and pest. It is implicated that, there were changes observed in the dimensions of impact. The total impact of PKV Kisan variety of paddy was observed 31.38 per cent. It means that there is definite impact of PKV Kisan variety on its growers. It is therefore implicated that, PKV Kisan variety needs to be continued and extended to other areas and should motivate the farmers for adoption of variety and there is lack of credit facility, high prices of fertilizer and attack of insect pest regarding this, it is implicated that government may provide subsidy on fertilizer and facilitate credit facility through co- operative society and banksen_US
