dc.description.abstractThe present investigation entitled Adoption level of package of practices of kinnow orchards of Haryana , was carried out in the blocks of Hisar, Sirsa and Fatehabad districts during the year 2010- 11. A total number of 20 farmers were selected for purpose of investigation. An interview schedule was developed on the basis of recommended package of practices for kinnow production. The adoption score of the farmers ranged from 11 to 32 out of maximum score of 40. The mean adoption score was moderate (21.65). The adoption level of time of planting, planting distance, land preparation and training and pruning practices was comparatively high. Important practices like drip irrigation (40%), plant protection measures (45%), weed control (45%) and intercropping (45%) had very low adoption level. The maximum adoption gap was observed in planting of wind break , post harvest treatment and fruit packaging. The fruit yield and quality were maximum with higher adoption levels . The nutrient status in soil had positive but non significant effect with adoption of package of practices whereas in plant, the nutrient status was significant with adoption level. With higher adoption level of package of practices, the farmers were able to get maximum gross income, benefit and benefit cost ratio. The most serious constraint hampering the kinnow production was citrus decline.en_US
